- TMMI "Aperture" Neurolink Integration: Xerxikeen Combat Armour is designed to function with full Neurolink integration, and indeed have no mechanism to activate many of their more advanced features, except through direct neural commands.
- HUD-2.1 "Acumen" Helmet System: Advanced helmet package, covering communications, sensors, life support, and a state-of-the-art HUD display, courtesy of Jaeger Solutions.
- SG-1001 "Vishnu" Military Shield: Built into the suit itself - and adding to its bulky nature - this advanced military shield provides excellent protection against energy weapons of all kinds, though not kinetic force.
- B-11 "Greitis" Class Combat Boots: Complicated enough that all Xerxikeen must be specially trained in its use, the Greitis contains everything from more standard features such as magno-grip soles and a vibroblade foot plate to the truly obscure, such as repulsors that increase running speed and bloody rockets boots!
- Automated Adrenal-Injection System.
- Power Gloves - Minor Strength Enhancement.
- Walking Bulwark: Designed to withstand anything the galaxy can throw at it, Xerxikeen combat armour is highly resistant to blasters and similar weapons, which is only supplemented further by its inbuilt energy shield. It is somewhat more vulnerable to kinetic weapons, especially since the shield only protects against energy weapons, but is still able to withstand significant punishment.
- Environmentally Sealed: Xerxikeen combat armour is fully sealed and capable of functioning in some of the galaxy's harshest environments, from the vacuum of space to the searing heat of Mustafar and the wastes of Hoth. Furthermore, its choice of materials makes it extremely resistant to ionic weapons and EMPs, with only the strongest and most direct assaults having any chance of penetrating it.
- Go, Go Gadget: Taking full advantage of the fact that only custom-made cyborgs will ever wear these suits, they are crammed full of advanced Jaeger technology, all of which is controllable using neural impulses, thanks to full Aperture Integration.
- Advanced Weapons: Few are the armours that can withstand more than a glancing blow from a lightsaber - Xerikeen Combat Armour, while certainly very sturdy, is not among them. Against disruptors, one might as well be wearing cardboard.
- Full Shutdown: Xerxikeen Combat Armour is designed to be almost impervious to Ionic weapons... for very, very good reason. Not only are they crammed full of advanced Jaeger technology, they are also linked directly to their wearer's brains, wearers who are also crammed full of advanced cybernetics. In short, extremely powerful Ion weapons or, Force forbid, Mechu-Deru, is liable to shut down not only the armour but the soldier within as well, potentially even frying their damn brains.
- Sonic Weapons: While fairly good at blocking kinetic force, Xerikeen Combat Armour lacks the specialised modifications needed to properly nullify hard sound. It provides some limited protection, but more powerful bursts or sustained assaults will cause microfractures throughout the armour... and tear apart the person within.
As the first batch of Xerxikeen Gene Warriors neared completion, TriTech, lacking expertise in such areas, began to search for a manufacturer for the specialised armour and equipment needed to fully realise the project, with the choice landing on Jaeger Solutions.
In cooperation with the company, TriTech went through several prototypes before the choice landed on a bulky but highly resilient set of combat armour, designed to be both intimidating and efficient, advanced yet reliable. Designed from the ground up for the Xerxikeen, the suit features a high-degree of mind-to-machine integration and a number of advanced technologies, with its exterior being sufficiently modular to allow for the various aesthetic changes needed to declare any given Xerxikeen's allegiance... or rather its owner.
