The Final Dawn has always strived for naval dominance. It's warships are a testament to it's powerful doctrines. The soldiers are varied and also enforce their interests in a wide range of environments. This armour is one of many tools which help the Final Dawn soldiers project their strength.
The armour is proficient, offering some fairly standard layers of protection against a wide range of combat damage types. But it goes just a little bit further in adding anti-tracking hardware so that the plating doesn't have to take as many hits. The anti-tracking equipment is not perfect, since a good marksman that prefers to not use target assistance systems would not be affected. But for enemy droids and well-equipped enemy soldiers, they would certainly see a decrease in accuracy when confronted by troops in these suits.
These suits are also ideal for enhancing ranged combat accuracy. As long as the wearer is using weapons that utilize something like a computerized interface scope, this suit will significantly improve their accuracy. Most notably, however, the TECMIS software is designed to created false-positive weapons discharges and projectile trajectories to coral and fool enemies that are equipped with their own sensor systems.
One major drawback of these suits is the fact that their electronic hardware is vulnerable to ION bolts or EMP blasts. The suits do come equipped with a small de-ionizer assembly, but it takes time to properly de-ionize these suits once they've been disabled. In battle, time is death. Even without the electronic gear, the armour plating is still very tough, but the aim assist features are completely disabled. The wearer must then rely strictly on experience, training, and skill to maintain some effective marksmanship.
Additionally, these suits offer great protection in EVA combat. They are, essentially, armoured spacesuits, with generic EVA features that would normally be expected. A jetpack of any kind can be easily installed on the hardpoint on the back, the boots can magnetize for zero "g", and there are many smaller hardpoints on the suit for holding gear so that it doesn't float off into space while fighting. Therefore, there aren't many environments that these suits can't fight in, but limb flexibility is highly limited. Tight spaces and extremely rough terrain prove a challenge for the wearers of this armour.
However, given the higher costs to this armour, it is not commonly used by generic troops, and only specialized, or elite units are typically seen wearing them. But, whenever a soldier unit arrives wearing this gear, their enemies will know; The Final Dawn means business.
