Is that a Halo reference?

Sure is!

117 and Alpha Commander -> Master Chief

The armor has the med-kit perk and is basically just a re-color of CM-14 Physician with slightly different shoulders.

This has been my armor for 100% of my playtime, the med-kit perk is unbeatable IMO (+2 total stims and +2s stim duration) and I don’t really like the red/green/white of the other medic armors.

Ik im late to this thread but I’ve never used medkit armor before, it might be my main now

I pair mine with the tan hood helmet from the recon armor and it looks nice

Thanks for sharing!

Also, interesting that this was handed out as a DLC package rather than in game reward.

Good looking out.

I thought this was more of a halo reference. The four pockets beneath the chest are kind of like the MK V suit but the rest is sort of its own thing?

Definitely a halo reference by name and color, I definitely see what you mean about the chest pockets, but they are part of the original CM-14 Physician armor as well
