@@punctuationman334 A lot of people used to think MJOLNIR Mark VI looked better at the time than V. That said, I definitely prefer the B model aesthetically, so maybe you're right.
"Plating of the armour is designed to be structurally limited in its motion; this means plates near joints are designed to hit each other to prevent the risk of hyper-extension..." That is _soooo_ fucking good to hear. It's ridiculous how many times I've looked into an armour system (beside medieval plate) that goes, "the armour is fitted with plates designed to allow a 360 degree range of unhindered movement," when that's supposed to be an issue armour prevents.
I don't see how that's a bad thing though. Wouldn't you want the armor to provide as much freedom of movement as possible? Bare with me here because i know nothing about how armor is designed
@@thememeilator2633 I exaggerated, but simply put armour is as much about preventing direct trauma from reaching your body as it is preventing your body from moving in ways it shouldn't at speeds it shouldn't; say, for example, whiplash, suffered after being knocked down due to a couched rest-assisted full-gallop horse-powered lance strike, or your knee bending the wrong way because your kneecap slipped. Medieval plate took this into consideration, with helmets that incorporated neck guards locking the head in position a la the Great Bascinet or Frog Helm so as to insure the neck during jousts in tourneys or battle, while joint mechanisms would only straighten out so far, having the arm slightly bent in order to ensure nothing broke because one's opponent managed to combine his arm with a sword and form a lever. This is still somewhat an issue with Third Generation Warfare, as explosives, vehicular-induced trauma and other things pose much similar threats, being liable to force body parts to bend every wrong way; for example, in the case of Mjolnir, should the head be rocked back due to an explosion the base of the helmet will meet the top of the breastplate's rear component and lock the head from moving any further back, preventing whiplash and other cervical injuries. Presumably. While this would prevent one from looking straight up, it protects the wearer while still enabling one to maintain a good visual range. In summary, it's not to say _effective_ motion is limited because of this plate structure; one should still be able to walk, kneel, sit etc. with reasonable normalcy, I've even read of a particular French Prince that danced in his armour as part of his training, it's just certain extreme manoeuvres - like a standing split - are impossible to perform for safety reasons.
@@clxwncrxwn no Spartan is 10 feet tall, dude... in armor, any Mark armor, a Spartan2 is 7ish feet tall. 6ish foot outside of armor... height does not change at all with any Mark or Variant of armor. Not Gen1 Mark 4 nor Gen2 Mark 6, they are all the same difference giving the Spartan roughly a foot of added height. The only difference in height is the height of the Spartans themselves, and no Spartan was 10 feet tall, even the tallest Spartan was not even close to 10. John117 is 6'2 normally and 7'2 in armor... The tallest Spartan, of any Spartan gen, is Kurt051 and he was 7'2 normal, always said to be a full head taller than Chief which is one(1) foot and in armor Kurt is 8'2 So not anywhere near your 10 feet tall Spartan statement. Where did you even get 10 feet from? Like it's almost common knowledge now that they're 7 feet tall given through the games, novels, expanded media. Most people just know it so to hear someone say 10 feet tall is so weird. Like when you hear the generic saying when someone is exaggerating "he was 10 feet tall!" Talking about taller than average people who are like 6'3 lmao...
MJOLNIR-ARMOUR/EGYPTIAN-POWER ARMOUR/POWER-ARMOUR-COOLANT-SYSTEM/VENTILATION-SYSTEM A Egyptian power armour will need small, twin ventilation and coolant system. These will be outfitted near the shoulder [blades] of the wearer/user. They will resemble large, bulky protrusions (like twin backpacks) that system from the shoulder area, as though they were wings. This complex ventilation system is what makes the power armour comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. Like the life support system, the ventilation and coolant system will need to be monitored and regulated by an in-built Ai system. Update (08/03/2022): I wonder if slime-mold [technology] can be utilized to optimise the efficiency of the ventilation system, i.e. to integrate a thin suit-made of living slime mold (if successful, this would also help to minimise weight of the power armour, thus aiding and ensure that energy is spent elsewhere). The slime-mold suit will need to make contact with the wearer/user; where it can conduct heat and other biological waste (such as sweat, and potentially dead blood cells from a bleeding wound) away from the user, and expel it near the air-ducts or any other preferred location. NOTE: Egyptian power-armour will combine the functionality of a thin space suit (like that seen in "space X's space suit"), a basic medical, life support system and monitors, and finally a knights suit of armour. The suit will electronic, and obviously computerized (assisted by a combination of AI systems). When it action, it will be somewhat fluent, and capable of making fluid action and movement, despite being a robotic suit (LLMs that are dedicated to mimicking natural body moment in fluid motion will comprise the majority of the suit's AI output). Lastly, the suit will need to be water resistant (water resistant spray, that is difficult to chip and wear out after extended usage will be preferred), and its ventilation system will be integrated with a small filtration system. This will make the suit resistant to poison or environments with airborne, hazardous substance. NOTE: A tough plastic material should be utilised on the exterior of the [Egyptian] power-armour. While being weather resistant and durable, its primary pose will be to give the power armour form (so that it looks futuristic and formidable-further adding to its ability to function as a deterrence), as well as double as additional shock-absorption/shock-dampener. The material will then need to be painted with metallic paint, so as it give it a metallic aesthetic in its composition (deceit/material mimicry). //Close.
You sir have a wonderful talent for speaking, an incredible attention to detail, and the most dedication to finding every single minute piece of knowledge needed to create some fantastic videos. I applaud you and am so very happy to have subscribed.
The combination of genuine technical, scientific details, processes and concepts meshed with a great descriptive tone and nice accompanying video makes this a really phenomenal lore series.
Just found you through Eckhartsladder, horey shet this is a type of channel I need! As a hardcore Halo fan, I love extreme detailed videos on the science behind technology in Halo, Halofollower & few others don't just don't cut, they don't make me feel geeked out sometimes, thier fine with the story elements, sometimes I just want something deeper like how the MA5C work right down to what type of advance propellant gunpowder is used in 7.62s 500 years in the future to how the Grunts evolved on thier homeworld & why they look the way they do in-lore, little things that most fans wouldn't think about. Glad I found this channel, you get a sub! Edited: Could you do videos on Forerunner technology such as theoretics of hardlight & other nano-tech they use as standard?
This Mark iv and Mark v will always be my favorite iterations of the Spartan armour. I think to this day it still looks the best I actually like the helmet of the mark IV more so than the Mark v even though it basically looks the same except for the things protruding out of the side, I absolutely love the fact that Jerome of red team still sports this armor even though it is completely outdated and he has no shielding, he still kicks ass in it in Halo wars 2 this will be forever the armor and I think of when I think of Master Chief and Halo Spartan 2s in general
if spirit of fire ever returns to earth her spartans will get a lot of new stuff they were away so long that theyr armours are nothing compared to chiefs current armour
What I love about the MK IV is that it looks/feels compact/tight/sleek, yet flexible and bulky in all the right places. Combat efficient. It’s truly a technological marvel **chefs kiss** Never was a fan of the MK V has it was just ugly, bulky and did away with everything that made the MK IV so damn iconic
I work with metals (forging, cast, plate, etc.) and I am very impressed with the detail and analysis you posted regarding the chemistry and mechanical properties of them. Not saying they are real or any current ASTM specs but very detailed. Thanks and I am hitting the subscribe button.

Love the channel. These are the sort of breakdowns ive been wanting from a Halo lore channel. Thank you so much for doing what you do. I hope your channel blows up.
This has been amazing to watch and review. As a halo fan and always wanted to have a basic understanding of this for when we have the technology to build parts of this. Your video has become the guidelines for hopefully development of it.
You used to talk so fast. I’m glad you’ve gained the confidence to slow down and speak comfortably more recently. It sounds so nice to hear you talk as you are rather than feeling rushed.
I love your videos. Just found you a few weeks ago and just keep watching them. Lol This is the second time I've watched this vid alone. Helps with research.
I kept getting Steve Mould's videos in my reccomended about metal crystalline structures and what happens to them during heat treating and finally watched a few (interesting watch btw) and unrelated to that, I got led here through a reply to a guys comment on MetaNerdz Lore's channel about Halo that was reccomending your channel for more detailed info about the Spartan armor, and having you relate that detail along with Halo lore about the suits in your videos was pretty cool~☆ great video quality I'm gonna binge a few now 😅
This is one video of many my friend. This video probably took a couple of weeks to research, write, record and edit. I've got several qualifications in fields that overlap with many of the components of MJOLNIR, so that did help speed it up a bit. Planning loads more. Any ideas on my next most detailed breakdown? Let me know!
If I could request a video for this series, I’d love to hear about the pelican dropships and some of their variations! They’ve fascinated me for years and I’d love to know about their capabilities, uses and specialisations! Until then I’m going to be studying this goldmine of lore you’ve produced. Looking forward to seeing more content :)

Hands down my most favourite Spartan armour set ever. I was introduced to halo with ce as a little kid a long time ago my artistic preferences and tastes would change with time but as an Adult I can confidently say Mjolnir MK IV is the definitive Spartan Look. ___ Chief's infinite look will define the Xsx for the decade, but when I hear spartan and halo the mk Iv immediately comes to mind. It's such a refined look and with the HW2 cutscenes shows that the Bungie design can translate to modern times perfectly. ok I get that the first game was made by Ensemble but they painstakingly adhered to the Identity bungie had been establishing so it was natural that 343 and Creative Assembly would continue that trend. _ Spartan Jerome, Alice and Douglas look amazing in HW1/2 the cutscenes are so Beautiful and the 'Know your enemy' ad gives me goosebumps everytime and stands as my most favourite piece of Halo media ever made. at 8:40 that's what comes to mind when I think Spartan, heroic and symbol of the strength of Humanity and the Unsc. It isn't as advanced or modern as the spartan Iv's but the Spartan II's in Mjolnir MK IV stands as the Best spartan design ever. __ HW2 was given the challenge of fitting in with what 343i had started, but with the oppertunity of bringing the Spirit of Fire back along with everything from that old era of Halo. Became the push to form to bridge the old and new identity for Halo Infinite. Badass without compromise, Heroic without being overstated, Dutiful and Iconic. The Mjolnir MK IV.
God I love your content, particularly how in depth you go into the science of the subject! You must have some sort of schooling background. That or you truly are gifted when it comes to research
Technically we as humans in the 21st century, can make this armor today but it would be slight downgraded because augmentations dont exist as we know it and technology setbacks are garanteed
The power source would also be bad. It would resemble Orión project armor suits that had a cable running to an external power supply. Meaning limited usage and range of the suit. That and the numeral interface stuff can’t be achieved.
2:58 You mentioned that there is some previous prototipe versions of the mark IV, do you know More info about those? I'm really love this type of videos when explore the Lore of halo and i like to know More about Mjolnir development
Something I've always wondered is how the unsc vs covenant war would have gone if the unsc had gone a few more years before being discovered or if the unsc had around a decade to try to prepare for the war.
I have to wonder how much of the fusion technology you describe was researched by the devs and how much is just technobabble lol. I still love me some technical specs.
Okay, I have to say, all very well done, but I also just got done reading Halo: Silent Storm, and the Master Chief HIMSELF states that MJOLNIR can cycle air in the rebreathers for *90* minutes, and this is only the most recent canon use of this '90-minute-air-supply' factoid, for it is in many other canon novel references also. Am i missing something about the way rebreathers work?
Agreed, that makes sense. I am referring to the numerous Canon references, namely from Silent Storm, where MJOLNIR internal air supply lasts 90 minutes on rebreathers. Heck, Steve Downes narrated an excerpt of the book prior to release that stated this very fact. I am just trying to see if I misread or heard incorrectly, because these videos are head and shoulders above my understanding of materials science!
Yes it is. That is another video I am developing as we speak. It will be basically, how to build a suit of armor like MJOLNIR, and how technically possible it is. And it really is!
If you could move past the power production and containment issue we have probably 60% of the tech for this already. The energy shield we couldn't make yet and irl would probably be a gravity field if something like that is possible. The nueral imputs are probably 15 years away if Elon Musk has his way with how nueralnets lol.
Based on this break down of the armor, it really sounds like Spartans were created/oggmented for the operations of the suit. In other words, the suits were created first but average adult humans were never able to achieve symbiosis with the suit. Which led Dr. Halsey to start the Spartan program by abducting kids as it would have been too expensive and time consuming to start an entirely new division to conceive and foster newborns which could potentially yield unsuccessful, hence the quickest and cheapest way around the unknown was to abduct healthy kids for immediate testing. In short, Spartans are machines first, humans after and all the doings of the Librarian reparating the throne humanity was destined for.
That’s why I liked the one suit they made that actually did allow regular humans to pilot them. That was a beast of a suit and I hope in the future would be fleshed out! Looked awesome in the movie
It would be friggin sweet if we had biofoam, or as long as we’re fantasizing, Mjolnir power armor in the field. Wouldn’t even need a firearm to win a battle!
Imagine a spartan armor using convenient tech during the time of peace between the Shangheli and earth making a iron man mark 50 esk suit that looks like it was liquefied and graphed to the spartan.
I have one suggestion for all Spartans. A second brain connector maybe in the base of the spine and a redesign helmet to incorporate a internal support so to prevent direct head punches from disconnecting the Neural interface.
It definitely looks the best of all armor marks. Hope I can wear it in infinite MP or even a miraculous halo prequel that will probably never happen lol. Would be cool though.
The oldest generation of Spartan Armor and yet it's still the best looking...
Spartan armor started to show more its “functionality over aesthetic” philosophy over time with every new generation of armor.
@@punctuationman334 A lot of people used to think MJOLNIR Mark VI looked better at the time than V. That said, I definitely prefer the B model aesthetically, so maybe you're right.
Emile: am I a joke to you?
It looks girth
I don’t think so, chiefs armor looks the best in my opinion
Mark 4 is by far the best looking Spartan armour. If they just added energy shields then it’d be perfect. I really hope we see it in Infinite.
Gen 2 Mk IV says hello
Master Chief is wearing Gen 3 armor in Infinite.
About that 😅
No offense but gen 2 hands down beats mark iv in looks

Honeslty love all the powered armor of halo with the halo 4 mark 6 being my favorite
This man is under rated
Best halo channel.
Really nice video, were did you got all this information?
I really like it :)
Mostly lore based information from the games and books, but I'm also qualified in electronic engineering, computer science and materials science, so some is informed from that knowledge and modest extrapolation.
@@Installation00 nice to hear, I´m qualified in electronics (I made an apprenticeship as an electician for systems and devices) too and now studying computer science :)
Also I like the level of details in your video :D
@@Frogn_ ah. Good to meet someone with similar background to myself. Welcome aboard. How you enjoying it so far? Looking forward to your thoughts and input on my past and future videos!
@@Installation00 I´m quite fine with it, but there are 9 exams upcoming... and I don´t want to... xD
When I´ll find time, I´ll watch more of your videos :)
This video was amazing. Instant sub
Just heard about you on the Finishing this Fight podcast. Love the channel!
Pleasure to have you! What episode I get a shout out in?
Bonus Episode 5: Interview With Halo Canon. I won’t spoil it for you, you should listen to it!
amazing lore mastery dude. loved that.
Hands down my most favourite Spartan armour set ever.
I was introduced to halo with ce as a little kid a long time ago my artistic preferences and tastes would change with time but as an Adult I can confidently say Mjolnir MK IV is the definitive Spartan Look.
___
Chief's infinite look will define the Xsx for the decade, but when I hear spartan and halo the mk Iv immediately comes to mind.
It's such a refined look and with the HW2 cutscenes shows that the Bungie design can translate to modern times perfectly.
ok I get that the first game was made by Ensemble but they painstakingly adhered to the Identity bungie had been establishing so it was natural that 343 and Creative Assembly would continue that trend.
_
Spartan Jerome, Alice and Douglas look amazing in HW1/2 the cutscenes are so Beautiful and the 'Know your enemy' ad gives me goosebumps everytime and stands as my most favourite piece of Halo media ever made.
at 8:40 that's what comes to mind when I think Spartan, heroic and symbol of the strength of Humanity and the Unsc.
It isn't as advanced or modern as the spartan Iv's but the Spartan II's in Mjolnir MK IV stands as the Best spartan design ever.
__
HW2 was given the challenge of fitting in with what 343i had started, but with the oppertunity of bringing the Spirit of Fire back along with everything from that old era of Halo. Became the push to form to bridge the old and new identity for Halo Infinite.
Badass without compromise, Heroic without being overstated, Dutiful and Iconic.
The Mjolnir MK IV.
How did I not know of this channel before?
I know right?
Heretics that don't want us to be informed our favourite franchise.
God I love your content, particularly how in depth you go into the science of the subject! You must have some sort of schooling background. That or you truly are gifted when it comes to research
Where do you get all this specific info lol like bro are you from the future/Halo and part of ONI lol
Of course he’s not part of ONI, he’d be killed for sharing the secrets
Colossal Flavoursome no he’s part of ONI these are his direct orders I’m a high ranking agent
Technically we as humans in the 21st century, can make this armor today but it would be slight downgraded because augmentations dont exist as we know it and technology setbacks are garanteed
The power source would also be bad. It would resemble Orión project armor suits that had a cable running to an external power supply. Meaning limited usage and range of the suit.
That and the numeral interface stuff can’t be achieved.
Torch? What's next, windscreen?
In all seriousness though, these Halo series are great.
2:58 You mentioned that there is some previous prototipe versions of the mark IV, do you know More info about those? I'm really love this type of videos when explore the Lore of halo and i like to know More about Mjolnir development
Mereces mas suscriptores, eres genial, saludos desde MEXICO
This is why I love Halo, they tried to make this seem realistic.
Some of this background music is so good.
With the release of the UNSC Infinity video, gonna binge watch MDB like a boss!
Something I've always wondered is how the unsc vs covenant war would have gone if the unsc had gone a few more years before being discovered or if the unsc had around a decade to try to prepare for the war.
If they had time to prepare they would’ve wiped the covenant imo. They’re so much more innovative and tactically competent.
I have to wonder how much of the fusion technology you describe was researched by the devs and how much is just technobabble lol. I still love me some technical specs.
The compact size might be unlikely, but generally they didn't skip their homework and made a pretty reasonable universe as a result
Okay, I have to say, all very well done, but I also just got done reading Halo: Silent Storm, and the Master Chief HIMSELF states that MJOLNIR can cycle air in the rebreathers for *90* minutes, and this is only the most recent canon use of this '90-minute-air-supply' factoid, for it is in many other canon novel references also. Am i missing something about the way rebreathers work?
They scrub out carbon dioxide by a chemical reaction so they do have a limited supply
Agreed, that makes sense. I am referring to the numerous Canon references, namely from Silent Storm, where MJOLNIR internal air supply lasts 90 minutes on rebreathers. Heck, Steve Downes narrated an excerpt of the book prior to release that stated this very fact. I am just trying to see if I misread or heard incorrectly, because these videos are head and shoulders above my understanding of materials science!
My favourite by far!
Really hope you do an updated version to cover all the new armor and stuff from the recent halo infinite update.
So the armor was essentially the Swiss Army knife of armors lol
These are awesome
damn...that's one hell of a tin can
When I think of spartan II’s, I think of mark IV armor
I’ll be honest I always thought the mark IV looked the best out of the standard sets
You are not alone 👍🏼
I just looked at the date this video was uploaded. It was uploaded on my birthday
Happy belated birthday!
@@Installation00 That is mate. Also, great work on the breakdown. It's definitely the most detailed I've ever seen.
Keep up the great work mate.
Super underrated
I just wonder is any of this is actually possible irl
Yes it is. That is another video I am developing as we speak. It will be basically, how to build a suit of armor like MJOLNIR, and how technically possible it is. And it really is!
How Bungie accidently predicted future military hardware. 😂
The power supply is likely to be the greatest issue we'd face today.
If you could move past the power production and containment issue we have probably 60% of the tech for this already. The energy shield we couldn't make yet and irl would probably be a gravity field if something like that is possible. The nueral imputs are probably 15 years away if Elon Musk has his way with how nueralnets lol.
DigitalVanquish it would probably be the needed augmentations due to the hyper speed of the joint movement, but the power would be difficult too.
Based on this break down of the armor, it really sounds like Spartans were created/oggmented for the operations of the suit. In other words, the suits were created first but average adult humans were never able to achieve symbiosis with the suit. Which led Dr. Halsey to start the Spartan program by abducting kids as it would have been too expensive and time consuming to start an entirely new division to conceive and foster newborns which could potentially yield unsuccessful, hence the quickest and cheapest way around the unknown was to abduct healthy kids for immediate testing. In short, Spartans are machines first, humans after and all the doings of the Librarian reparating the throne humanity was destined for.
Pretty much, the first volunteers basically "twitched" themselves to death.
That’s why I liked the one suit they made that actually did allow regular humans to pilot them. That was a beast of a suit and I hope in the future would be fleshed out!
Looked awesome in the movie
The limited edition for reach came with a book that was Halsey’s journal, and that’s basically what happened.
Can you do a breakdown of the UNSC Infinity
yes please!
It would be friggin sweet if we had biofoam, or as long as we’re fantasizing, Mjolnir power armor in the field. Wouldn’t even need a firearm to win a battle!
But on the flip side, in power armor you could readily haul around a monster firearm too and scare the wits out of your enemy
Installation00 You say the armor has 45min of air when sealed. Its actually 90min. It was mentioned in multiple books.
Happy i found this bros channel
Imagine a spartan armor using convenient tech during the time of peace between the Shangheli and earth making a iron man mark 50 esk suit that looks like it was liquefied and graphed to the spartan.
I have one suggestion for all Spartans. A second brain connector maybe in the base of the spine and a redesign helmet to incorporate a internal support so to prevent direct head punches from disconnecting the Neural interface.
Oldest yet still the sexiest variant of Mjolnir
3:50 Alice CAKED UP 😩
i always thought that halo 2 marine had a chocolate bar
"You know how expensive this chocolate is son?" "Tell that to the covenant"
Wow, just wow
Why was this recommended to me just now? Better late than never I guess
It definitely looks the best of all armor marks. Hope I can wear it in infinite MP or even a miraculous halo prequel that will probably never happen lol. Would be cool though.
7:35 VANDERWAAAAAAAALLLLLSSSSSS
😂😂😂
Looks more badass than gen 2 armor systems
We seriously need a Master Chief and Blue Team action figure set with this armor
So this is the goal for that suit your trying to build?
Just came from that video, I hope you accomplish your goal!
THE BEST ARMOR IN THE SERIES.
EVER.
