SPECIAL FEATURES
DNA Security Measures: The GF-22 is armed with DNA security measures, coded to the individual users DNA. These mean that access to the armour can only be undertaken by their users, and the chance of theft is minimised.
Hormone Injectors: Hormones such as adrenaline, testosterone and endorphins have been added to the armour. These are injected automatically during combat to keep up combat efficiency of troopers, and assist cauterising wounds.
Multi-Spectrum Scanner: Life Form, Nightvision, infared, thermal, ultraviolet and high frequency sonar can be tracked by the GF-22
Personalised Shield Generators: A light deflector shield has been installed within the GF-22, allowing it for limited protection, before it wears down.
Computerised HUD: A specialised HUD, which feeds sensor data and converts it to ergonomic format, meaning its easily processed for the wearer.
Servo Exo-Skeleton: The GF-22 armour has a servo skeleton, which allows for the armour to carry extra weight, and give more force.
Combat Scanner: The GF-22 is armed with a high powered scanner. It can scan the following wavelengths. Life forms, sonar mapping, motion scanning, radar and macrobinoculars.
Jetpack Mount: Jumpjets can be mounted to the rear of the armour to increase mobility.
Life Support System: The GF-22 holds enough residual oxygen for seven hours in oxygen deprived environments.
Chemical Filter: Fitted around the armour, and through the helm, the GF-22 has been calibrated to filter out hazardous chemicals, fumes, smoke and acid.
Wrist-Mounted Advanced Blowtorch: Housed on whatever wrist is ergonomic for the user, a blowtorch has been mounted. This being used either to breach sealed doors, or to seal them.
Magnetic Boots: The boots of the GF-11 are able to be magnetised, allowing troops to attach to metallic surfaces.
Encrypted Comms Emitter: Scrambles communications to ensure that communications between squads cannot be intercepted.
Wrist-Mounted Vibroblades: Embedded in each wrist, are vibroblades, used to perform melee when other weapons not available.
Medical Injections: Along with hormone injections, painkillers and limited kolto injections can be given to the user.

Strengths:
Stronk: The GF-22, due to its nature, increases the strength of users once inside the armour.
Tough Nut: The shield generator, in conjunction with the reinforced structure of the GF-22’s structure make it a tough nut to attack.
Versatile: The GF-22 is built for nearly any occasion, and any environment .
GF-22, M.D.: The GF-22 is built in with hormone and medical injectors designed to keep the wearer in battle as long as possible.
Expert Awareness: The data feed given to the wearer of the GF-22 is enough to provide effective combat data to give troopers the advantage.
Absolute U N I T: The GF-22 Power Armour adds another foot and a half to the height of its users, and increases their size massively. This makes them a bigger target.
Servo Motors: A large part of the power of the which resonate from the armour, is servo motors. Disabling these, will decrease the mobility of the user.
Quiet: Stealth isn’t really an option with this hulking mass of machine. It can be heard quite a distance away.
Manoeuvrability: Close up manoeuvrability of the GF-22 is not really an option for it at close range, due to the size, and build of it.
Ion Weapons: Although the GF-22 does have a shield generator, its systems are vulnerable to ion attack and this should be taken into account when fighting.
The GF-22 powered armour is an advanced piece of military equipment. The premise of it, based on that of the Death Trooper DARKSABRE Armour and the broader concept of having versatile and resilient shock troopers ready to support engagements. The GF-22 in regards to defences is a heavily armed piece with enough armour plating to rival some starships. This armour plating is complimented by a personalised shield generator designed to defend against heavy fire.
Because of the armour, there is an extensive weight put upon the power armour. This is allowed to occur because of an advanced network of servos, specially designed to fit the users physiology and reflexes. The servos, while defended against attacks by armour, is vulnerable to EMP and ion attacks. Such damage disables the servos and cripples the mobility due to the weight of the armour.
The GF-22 is fitted with state of the art computer targeting and sensor systems. These suites allow the suit to detect enemies and accurately find and locate them on map. In firefights, the GF-22 deposits hormones and drugs into the combatant, allowing them to be more resilient in the field. This makes any wearer of the GF-22 a far more effective agent in the field.
