- Advanced communication system with built-in HUD display. Allows for user to respond audibly without sound emitting from the helmet.
- Advanced Scanners with proximity alert system within 100 foot radius. Equipped with visible heat signature readout that can display life forms even from behind walls and bulkheads.
- Equipped with standard space-suit capabilities, allowing for up to 12 hours of life support in space or other hazardous/toxic environments.
- Equipped with rear camera placed behind their head, allowing for user to monitor what is behind them at all times.
- Night vision ready, as well as anti-stun countermeasures equipped within helmet and HUD display.
- Unique and proprietary rear-guard interlinking shield plating made of Phrik, makes it nearly impossible to successfully damage the user from behind with energy weapons or lightsabers. These plates can also extend, like wings, which can effectively shield a larger area from any incoming enemy fire.
- Heavy Armor. With very high resistance against energy-based weapons and lightsabers due to the dense Phrik armor plating, this suit is meant to endure quite a beating before the user begins to receive damage.
- Don't Attack From Behind. Due to a unique and proprietary rear-guard interlinking shield plating made of Phrik, this armor is nearly impossible to land a successful attack against from behind. There is also a rear camera installed that allows for the user to see what is happening behind them at all times.
- Advanced Scanners and Technology. The ability to scan up to 100 feet with a variety of scanners, including being able to track heat signatures through walls and bulkheads, make it very difficult to sneak up on the user.
- Life Support. Able to allow for the user to be isolated from toxic or unlivable atmospheres for up to 12 hours.
- Wing Defense. The interlinking shield plating can fully extend outward in the shape of wings, creating a large shield that can deflect a greater radius against incoming attacks and projectiles. When utilizing this defensive posture with multiple units, squads can effectively create an interlinking Phrik wall, protecting dignitaries, civilians, or other vulnerable members from an attack.
- Heavy. While the advantage to this armor is its strong resistance characteristics, the tradeoff is a heavier set of armor that is not ideal for pursuing enemies.
- Vulnerable to EMP's. The high tech nature of this suit of armor, while it provides many advanced features, makes it vulnerable to EMP's.
- Offense. This armor is definitely designed to hold off and withstand attacks, not so much to be used in engaging in any form of offensive or evasive maneuvers.
Tiresh Kobitana, CO-CEO of Kobitana Industries, put in a request for the development of the ultimate protective armor for an elite guardian unit that was being developed for the Lujian Forces. The goal was for the armor to withstand a steady onslaught of energy-based assault as well as lightsaber attacks while being able to protect groups of people in the midst of these attacks. After much research, and the supplies of Phrik provided from a trade agreement with the Queen of Alderaan, the Winged Guardian V1 was created. After extensive testing, it was finally put into production and began to be used exclusively by the Lujian Guardians, which were Elite Force Guards used to protect VIP's, dignitaries, senators, royalty, and even evacuating civilians and at-risk groups in the midst of chaotic war zones. The armor quickly proved to be an extremely affective defensive measure, saving countless lives in the line of service.
The armor is equipped with state-of-the-art sensors and an advanced communication HUD, allowing for detection of possible enemies from as far as 100 feet in any direction. The HUD display can even show heat signatures through walls, bulkheads, and other obstacles, making it very hard to catch the user off guard. With the unique and proprietary rear-guard interlinking shield plating made of Phrik, it is nearly impossible to effectively assault the user from behind. These plates could extend out in a wing-like defensive state, creating a Prik barrier to help protect people from incoming fire. When utilized in a squad, this wing defense could be used together in tandem to create an interlocking wall, very effective for protecting larger groups of people.
While it was very effective at defense and the protection of groups, it is not very effective at pursuing an enemy. If the enemy is able to get past the user, the benefits of the armor could easily became a burden. It is also rather heavy, making it nearly impossible to use for the purposes of evasion. If you are wearing this armor, you are wearing it to take the hits, not evade them. Also, due to the state-of-the-art tech, the armor and display HUD is vulnerable to EMP blasts, which would render the sensors and communication tech useless.
