Nanosuit Vs Mark VI suit
(Mark VI is the Halo 2-Halo 3 suit, The Mark V is the Halo CE one)
The two suits are equal in terms of combat.
The Mjolnir suit is equipped with a shield based on a Jackals wrist shield. The armor also allows Spartans to move faster with nerve robotics in the suit, allowing them to move faster. The suit also has a built in Armor Lock down that locks the armor so the Spartan can survive great impacts (This is standard and it is not the armor lock ability in Reach). However, the suit will only allow Spartans II and III to use because the armor would crush the toughest marines bones.
As far as I know, the Nanosuit will allow any person the ability it has. The suit heals the wearer when he is hurt, and makes the wearer stronger. The Nanosuit also turns the wearer invisible, increases the person speed, and toughens the armor so the wearer can live for longer. The Spartan's Mark VI suit can make a spartan invisible and have a 2X overshield, however, this is only by armor abilities or powerups.
So which is better? It comes down to the person inside the armor. A marine is a good choice for the Nanosuit. A marine would have the field experience and the training in combat, the suit only insures he is stronger. Spartans however were trained since they are 6, just like the Sparta Spartans. The Spartans can withstand pain, react faster, and have more weapon and field training than a marine. The Spartans are also genitally enhanced so they can move faster, jump higher, and survive the harshest conditions.
Overall, The Mark IV would win in combat dew too the wearer. The suits are equal in combat and survivability. If the two suits were faced in with Halo Spartans, the challenge would be a draw. The suits are both equal in warfare, but a Spartan is more than prepared for a marine in a Tin suit.
