As the basis for the GEN1 Mjolnir standard, many components of the original Mark IV can be used with GEN2 techsuits and VISRs after firmware updates. This hybrid GEN2/MARK IV [GEN1] suit is still used by select Spartan-II's.
Like its GEN1 predecessors it is backwards compatible—through hardware and firmware upgrades—with previous armor systems, including the Mark IV, Mark V, Mark VI, and the MJOLNIR variant of the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers' armor.
Mark IV is the base mjolnir. Mark V added shielding and the capacity for an ai. Mark VI improves upon the Mark V in every way and the same with Mark VII for Mark VI. The Marks are more based around introducing specific technologies, whereas the Generations are more of an overarching armour system.
The MK VI GEN 2 armor variant was adapted from preexisting MK VI suits to support GEN 2 software, probably because 1. it saves soem of the money on making new suits and 2. the SPARTANs who wore MK VI would be more comfortable in it.
But in practice, they're the same. Both systems denote a major development in Mjolnir armor, and have a mainline kit (the eponymous Marks IV, V, VI and VI for GEN1, Warrior for GEN2, and Mark VII for GEN3). The variants are pretty self explanatory.
GUNGNIR-class Mjolnir, also designated as the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/G variant on the Mark V platform, is a MJOLNIR armor variant originally designed by Misriah Armory, with the GEN2 version being manufactured by Hannibal Weapon Systems, and the GEN3 version being manufactured by Meyer e.V..
