- Quality Armor - Specialization against kinetic/physical weapons, the armor is deigned inkind to the ancient knight armor when people fought with swords and axes.
- Ionic Protection - Limited protection to key components such as the data cartridge, helmet HUD, and life support systems.
- No Inertial Dampening - While the armor has a chance of resisting explosive damage, there is no internal protection when thrown. Severe concussive damage possible, however heat resistant.
- Acid and Fire Susceptible - The armor can only keep out heated temperatures.
The GTA-01 was Galderra's answer to troop protection. Before GTA, there was metal "medieval" armor, and old and reused Stormtrooper Armor, which was outdated, deteriorating, and gave off the wrong impression of Galderra. They needed a Galactic Standard armor to compete in the galaxy, especially with the pathetic display they showed in their scuffle. schematics were drawn up and foreign designs were acquired and looked over, with the Stormtrooper original design still investigated for the future Galderra Armor. It was a symbol in their history, and they chose to reflect it. Especially considering it was still a good standard armor for when it was made, however maybe not the best.
GTA allows any user to operate in any habitable environment; vacuum, gas, and space included. They can run on the hull of a ship, survive in space, and take kinetic hits. Kinetic resistance was almost a forced requirement since the Galderran encounters with Gamorreans. Unfortunately it left other areas still wanting, with the only other necessary resistance being blaster resistance.
