Description: Commissioned by military officials to be the standard issue armour of all soldiers in the RSFU. They soon realised that production was more expensive than predicted and instead commissioned the armour to be worn by officers within the RSFU.
Initial prototypes used durasteel primarily and therefore suffered from weight problems, resulting in the introduction of more lightweight materials such as plastoid and plasteel. Prototypes also suffered from abundant stress on the knee joints, prompting researchers and developers to search for a solution. They found the Reactive Fiber in Mandalorian Crush Gaunts to be a useful material, thanks to it's strength amplifying qualities. Implementing this material into the knee joints solved the stress problem and also decreased the burden experienced by the user. After this discovery, the fiber was implemented into every joint. This eliminated some of the weight felt by the user, but did not amplify the user's natural physical prowess.
The suit sports a number of specialised features. The helmet is a treasure trove of computer wizardry, with a fully integrated Heads up Display (HUD), communication unit, oxygen recyclers, filtration unit and visual aids such as infrared vision. Thanks to sensors within the armor, vital signs, location and integrity are all monitored, relayed to mission commanders and displayed on the HUD. This makes managing squads and navigation much easier. The minimap in the HUD is infinitely simple and only marks the location of squadmembers and waypoints set by the user.
The suit's internal systems are powered by a small fusion battery that requires recharging every six weeks. In the case of exposure to the vacuum of space, the airtight armour has the ability to remain functional, keep the user safe and supplied with breathable air for a period of six hours.
