Iconic Armor Sets Breakdown
A-9 Helljumper Armor Set: Step into the armored boots of a legendary Lance Corporal who served the ODST with immense bravery and courage under fire. Debuted during the New Mombasa Armor Show, this complete set makes its way over to Helldivers 2.
A-35 Recon Armor Set: A sleeker, stealthier set designed for covert operations, perfect for Helldivers who prefer tactical approaches to democratic liberation.
