Description[edit]
This is a suit of armour that comes in two-parts - a set of trousers and a hooded jacket; and a face-mask with eye-protection. It cannot be mistaken for anything but protective clothing.
The armour comes with basic camouflage options for military versions - but a light-grey or day-glo yellow version is often used for civilian purposes. Two versions are manufactured: A light version providing lesser protection and a heavier version providing better protection.
Protective Properties[edit]
The cloth of this armour is flexible when mildly/slowly stressed, but inflexible when flexed rapidly.
If the armour is to be fully NBC effective respirators/filters must be added.
