Actually, didn't the other surviving Spartans pick up some newer prototype armor parts on Reach? At last count I think there were possibly as many as 8 total Spartans left. Master Chief, plus Fred, Will, and Kelly (hid in facility on Reach), Linda (cryo aboard Pillar of Autumn), and the three others who were too far away to be recalled right before Reach fell.
So, that's MC in the trailer, but it's possible he might have picked up some newer armor components from the others. Plus, there's no telling what Ackerson or Dr. Halsey have been up to.
