And you haven't considered the other side very much, I see.
While Predators were born and trained their entire life to collect bounty in the form of kills, and breed their most challenging enemy, and armed with crazy weaponry to boot, I very, VERY severely doubt that his weapons could take out any Elite or Brute in the first shot, throw, unless they were completely aware. (Slitting of throat, for example)
The Elites match the Predator in size, if not bulk. Also you must consider the fact that they are black Elites, only expended on the darkest of operations. They have more training for individual battle than both the red and blue elites.
The Brutes, on the other hand, rely on their strength. They more than match the Predator's bulk and surpass him in strength. But they aren't the greatest users of small weaponry.
Since the circumstances allow the Brutes and Elites to be armed with anything they 'normally' use, I would arm them as follows: One elite w/ energy sword and dual needlers, 2nd Elite with energy sword and beam rifle, 3rd Elite with energy sword and dual plasma rifles. All the Brutes have a Brute shot and a Brute plasma rifle.
So, the Predator here is equipped with standard armor(chestplate, mask, etc), hunting spear(for either throwing or stabbing), wristblade shooter, retractable claws, ultrahard combat knife, throwing shirukens with collapsible blades, and his big badass energy gun. Oh, and his crazy vision visor thingy.
Okay, if the Predator ever got forced into melee with his foes, they would literally wipe the floor with him. I severly doubt that many years of skill with metallic blades will propel him to victory over the strength of 3 plasma swords and 3 brute shot scimitar blades. (The elites and brutes are no slouches when it comes to using them, you can be assured of that)
However, I can safely say that the Predator is not stupid enough to put himself in that type of situation. I can also say that the Covenant members he's up against here are not stupid enough to split up and let him pick them off one at a time.
So we assume that the Covenant remains as a group in the jungle and not walk out into the open. And that the Predator remains hiddne in a tree or something, invisible.
Predator would detect the Covenant first with its insanely superior visor vision. Question is, how to take them down?
He can't fire a bolt from his energy gun; if he does, all that happens will be that the Brutes are knocked down and the Elite's shields will flare. By the time that the senior Predator's weapon recharges, they'll barrage him with a literal rain of Brute grenades, plasma, needler rounds(which track despite invisibility. Don't believe me, then play the game and try it out for yourself.), and a precision beam rifle shot. He'd be turned into molten slag or at least badly crippled by the time he got away, even with his agility and endurance.
And he can't stealth kill that well without someone noticing. (Tight group of Covies, remember.) Noose won't work. Shurikens have to be thrown with precision, and even then it would bounce off the Elite's shielding. Spear would probably knock the wind out of an Elite, plus take down his shields. He throws it, he loses a key weapon though.
Verdict: He'd probably end up taking about two or three of the squad down before they killed him.
