I'm fairly certain they got new armor.

When they went back to earth after operation first strike, John was given new armor to use. So just wondering did everyone else get to use mark 6 armor or did they have to keep their damaged old mark 5 armor?


In the Ghost of Onyx cover there is Mark V armor AND Mark VI, can someone explain?

"I may not be perfect, but always been true."

After extensive testing of prototype models in combat against the Covenant, the BLACK prototype was eventually inducted into the MJOLNIR line of combat exoskeletons and officially designated as the sixth version. It was approved for use after the loss of Reach and equipped to the surviving SPARTAN-IIs from Reach after their arrival on Earth.

So basically yes, it was given to all the surviving Spartan II's when they arrived to Earth, even though I think it was given to them by Halsey at Reach if I can remember correctly, I could be wrong though as they could had been minor upgrades.

Will, Fred and Linda Returned to Earth with the Chief and Johnston. They all got Mark VI.
Kelly was kidnapped by Halsey and did not return to Earth. She was the one with the Mark V armor.

Signatures are for squares.

Every Spartan II was issued Mark V on Reach, and any Spartan II's who managed to make it back to Earth was issued Mark VI.

Fred, Linda, Will, and John are the only known Spartan II's to have received Mark VI armor. (Though Maria tested a prototype.)

Kelly is the only known surviving Spartan II to still wear Mark V. She never returned to Earth and went directly to Oynx.

Gray Team, who is MIA, still operates with Mark IV based on what we know. And Black Team uses a Skunkworks model of MJOLNIR that is neither Mark V or VI.

Off-topic question, why was the OP blacklisted?

On topic, Surviving Spartan 2s are wearing different types of armor as Caboose saved.

Grey and Red team (SoF) are in mark IV.

Kelly has mark V, where the ones who went back to Earth have mark VI.

Though, I remember reading somewhere that Will, Linda, and Fred didn't get full Mark VI. What I remember said was that They had mostly Mark V, but had parts of Mark VI added to their armor. No clue if that's true or not.

Why was Jorge-052 not issued Mark V? If I'm correct, he's wearing a mosaic of armor, including the Grenadier variant, which I believe is Mark IV with an energy shield generator. Was it because of his duties with Noble Team?

In First Strike, all the surviving spartans under CASTLE were given armor upgrades to their Mark V by Halsey. However, the spartans who made it to Earth all got Mark VI.

I think I remember reading somewhere (could it have been in Halsey's journal? idk)that Jorge just altered his armor himself to make it, well, not exactly more efficient, but a hell of a lot cooler. Also, during Halsey and Jorge's conversation at Sword Base (1:14 here), Jorge says he modified his armor himself.

They were given modifications to their armor by Halsey under CASTLE. She upgraded their armor with pieces of Mk. VI

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

I pondered that as well, and I came to the conclusion that they did since they came back with Chief and Chief got new armor.

Also, you see Fred in Mark VI on the cover of Ghosts of Onyx. SPI guy is Kurt, Mark V gal is Kelly, and Mark VI guy is Fred. If Fred got it, the others got it.

Kelly was taken by Dr. Halsey to go to onyx before they reached Earth. Therefore she kept her Mark V The other spartans reached earth and got the Mark VI.
