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

what are you on? MK V was the same ratio of bulk and sleek. so was VI. Gen 2 MK VI (halo 4 and 5's chief) was where it got chonky as hell

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.

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

@@echoronin796 what do you mean by that

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.

Omg it does

LOL

But none of them are 10 feet tall lol

@@clxwncrxwn Chief is 7ft with armor my guy

@@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...

Ursine Maximus chief is 6’10 out of armor as was cited in Data Drop 5 posted to halo waypoint in 2012 I think

nothing beats mk VI dude

It has the most Halo aesthetic out of all the armors.

Yeah

Happy about the new core?

Just remember it is realistic in lore/story only. In game says nah lets balance everything despite the lore

Oof please use Halo Legends footage. Epic animu battles!

Agreed, gotta get in before Gen-3

martin kacmar they will get noticeably uglier tho.

Lmao * could just give them mark 4 gen 2 almost looks identical but has all the fancy upgrades.

Chris Spink sure

Imagine red team discovering energy shields.

@@galacticbananastopmotions7292 or fighting tha banished with gen 2 or 3

It still kicks ass

Pleasure to have you aboard!

That's where I came from too installation 00 is awesome .☺️especially if you like break downs

4K extra now :)

@@amandafranks5108 16k extra now! Thank you Eckartsladder and Halo Canon

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

Based on the description in Halo: Reach, MK V is really just MK IV upgraded to have shields.

Nice hotdog

Manuel kfc thanks. It’s a subway sandwich you ungrateful fried food!

@@grob8367 Oh i didn't know, lol

Halo in general seems to love getting into the nitty gritty of their tech and baseing it on concepts and tech that already exists

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 :)

@@FullMetalAnus I'll get right on it.

Installation00 greatly appreciated!

@@Installation00 YES! the DC-77 & 79! 😍

Research huh? What you got in mind?

If they had time to prepare they would’ve wiped the covenant imo. They’re so much more innovative and tactically competent.

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!

I know right?

Heretics that don't want us to be informed our favourite franchise.

"You know how expensive this chocolate is son?" "Tell that to the covenant"

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.

yes please!

The compact size might be unlikely, but generally they didn't skip their homework and made a pretty reasonable universe as a result

You are not alone 👍🏼

Same

Halo anime😍

😂😂😂

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!

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

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.

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 :)
