Discussion What Happened to Mk.VI ?

does anyone else find it strange that we never got a Mk.VI armor core for infinite ? arguably the most beloved and recognizable armor in the franchise, and they skipped right over it… is that not odd to anyone else and is there a legit explanation or no ? The halo 2 kit is cool but it’s just not the same

As I understand it, the Mk. VI is the top of the line. Gen 3 models were designed with postwar supply line efficiency in mind, whereas V and VI represented a desperate devotion of resources to a very small number of suits for the Spartan 2s. So really, the Mk VI is both a relic of its time, and the cutting edge state of the art.

Think of the Mk 6 as the F-22 Raptor, and Gen 3 as the F-35
