US Army combat armor

Description from original post (created 2015-11-24 18:12):

First created in 2051, the military-grade combat armor was designed to protect key sections of the human body from ballistic trauma with hard armored plates made from complex polymers and ceramics, with a flexible body suit interwoven with thermal-dissipative membranes and bulletproof material. The earliest models of the combat armor were manufactured as specific plates mounted on combat webbing, although as the technology improved, body-enclosing suits of armor were created and entered active combat duty, though in limited quantities. The armor came with a matte-finish olive drab coloring by default, making it suitable for woodland and/or urban camouflage.

US Army combat armor is different from standard combat armor in four primary ways, the first of which are aesthetic. The leggings are slightly darker, and have added cargo pouches. There is also a single chevron on either shoulder pad, indicating a rank of Private. Additionally, the US Army combat armor has more damage threshold than normal combat armor or reinforced combat armor, with only slightly less than Mk II reinforced combat armor. It also gives a bonus to the guns and survival skill.
