Description[edit]
This is a suit specifically designed to cope with dry environments, capturing and recycling the water perspired or breathed. It maintains a humidity that is comfortable for the wearer. The suit will recycle 99% (or better for some models) of the water lost by the wearer, and encourages/manages the required heat loss while providing heat protection when needed.
The suit comes with basic camouflage options for military versions.
Protective Properties[edit]
If the armour is to be used on worlds with very thin or tainted atmospheres, respirators/filters must be added. The protective capabilities of the suit are incidental to its function and provided by the recycling materials. Damage to the suit can render it's recycling capabilities much reduced.
