Ownership: Personally owned by Khivas, may be reproduced to anyone currently in the NJO or Rebellion.
Intent: Khivas will be using a rendition of this armor for himself, but all in all it is intended that any Jedi seeking something stronger than the standard suit of armor but wish to remain lighter on the battlefield may choose this armor, the “Medium” option between the previous Light version he recently submitted and the more “Heavy” options seen as of late from other users.
Model: Sentinel Combat System
Weight: 18kg when using only the suit and plating, but depending on the equipment carried into battle, may weigh more. Khivas’ loadout actually has him weighing in at 26kg.
Composition: The armor is a collection of various materials and tri-woven artificial fabrics, from armor-weave Duraplast to Durasteel plating and a reinforced Phrik overlay on the gauntlets.
Rating: Unlike the previous incarnation worn by Khivas, this version of the armor is heavier due to being made of a far more tougher build, with thicker plating where it was needed most and stronger weaving made with micronized Durasteel to better resist damage. Below is a detailed list of what the armor can withstand.
Slug Thrower Protection Ratings -
Small/Low Caliber Pistols - 7-10 Hits.
Medium Caliber Pistols and Carbines - 3-6 Hits.
Scatter Guns - Varies and depends on range. At close range depending on caliber, can be treated as a High Caliber Rifle. At Medium to Far Range, may be treated as a Small/Low Caliber Pistol at best.
High/Large Caliber Rifles, Carbines - 2-3 Hits before failing.
Sniper Rounds - 1-2 Hits before failing.
Blaster Protection Ratings -
Small/Light Blasters - 3-7 Hits.
Medium Blasters/Carbines - 2-5 Hits.
High/Heavy Blasters - 1-3
Sniper/Portable Cannons - Will not fully protect.
Blunt/Melee Protection Ratings -
Hand to Hand - Unbreakable.
Small Knives/Sharpened objects - Might at best slice the tri-weave, would fail to penetrate the plating.
Vibroblade Tech - Would slice the tri-weave but with resistance, would take multiple repeated hits, to break/damage the plating.
Lightsabers - Originally only the gauntlet's can fully defend, but recent conflict has encouraged Khivas to reinforce the entirety of the arms, with the gauntlets seeing a thicker Phrik overlay to slightly better resist saber strikes. For the upper arms and shoulders, it takes roughly 5-7 lighter strikes to defeat the armor and 1-3 heavy blows, and for the gauntlets it takes 7-9 light strikes and 2-4 heavy hits to defeat the armor.
Explosions -
Indirect/Small Yield - Will hold up and survive contact.
Indirect/Large Yield - Will take severe damage but survive.
Direct/Small Yield - Moderate to Severe damage, will survive.
Direct/Large Yield - Severe to Total damage, may not survive.
Note* Despite the armoring being in place, the user will still feel the blunt force trauma of every single thing that hits them, even if the armor maintains composure.
Due to all this, the overall rating of this armor would be set at 7/10.
Description And Features: The Sentinel Combat Armor isn't much more than an upgraded version of the Armax Tactical, with an incentive on intense, long term field usage and higher grade of protection, all the while trying it's best to not weigh down the user. It still retains the Duraplast tri-weave jumpsuit, only this time it's been reinforced further with micronized Durasteel, and instead of a sleeveless coat option, the S.C.S comes with a reinforced vest (same style as before) but with a tactical harness attached, of which the material is also a tri-weave material with micronized Durasteel woven in.
What is truly new however is the added strength of the Phrik Overlay on both gauntlets, and an additional overlay on the upper arm and shoulder armor, allowing for more rigorous lightsaber engagements. Additionally, inside the utility belt is a new grapple system developed specifically for this armor, firing out two short ranged magnetic hooks, making it easier for a user to either scale walls, perform rescue duties, or entangle an opponent. This coupled with other additional tech planted into the armor makes the Sentinel Combat System the perfect outfit for a long term Watchman in the field, or a Jedi that needs to perform a heavy duty combat role but prefers a lighter loadout than other armors.
Below is a more detailed list of what the armor entails and where it's entailed.
Helmet - Durasteel
- Radio Comms.
- I.F.F Tag Readers, so the good guys don’t shoot him on accident, most of the time.
- Rebreather system that is vacuumed sealed for hazardous environment traversing and protection.
- Six Spectrum Light Visor, allowing a user to see via both Nightvision, and multiple forms of Infrared and UV Scanning up to a limited distance.
- A HUD system that can place a Nav Point to get a better idea of where to go if an area has been scanned or has had coordinates uplinked, and has been uploaded by the user.
- Unique feature where the helmet can be taken off as if it was a loose form of mask made of multiple plates. When it is not worn in "battle mode", the helmet's interlocking system loosens up and folds back inside the hood of the cloak where it can remain hidden from view.
Vest w/Tactical Harness - Duraplast and Durasteel Armor Weave
- Specially made armor-weave to prevent physical and energy weapon damage using a brigandine structure of Durasteel plates.
- Extra pockets for storage of more equipment, or simply put, personal items.
- The jumpsuit worn underneath the armor and plating is made of a Tri-Weave Duraplast Fabrics with Micronized Durasteel.
Right Gauntlet/Upper Arm - Durasteel with Phrik Overlay
- Taser Bolt Launcher
- Magnetic Grapple Hook Launcher
- Satellite/Ship Positioning System, so allies know where he is if they have the proper equipment.
Left Gauntlet/Upper Arm - Durasteel with Phrik Overlay
- Magnetic Grapple Hook Launcher
- Taser Bolt Launcher
- Nav Point Grid System; scans the area and gives a detailed map for the user to follow, but must be summoned to look at, is not a mini map.
- Holo Comms.
Waistline Utility Belt - Durasteel
- Equipment compartments to house various combat and first aid items as well as attached sidearm holster, all of which are detailed in the character application and any user who wishes to copy this armor's schematics may find that they can use whatever payload they want.
- Utility belt comes equipped with a grapple hook system that launches out two small magnetic hooks from both sides and can project and reel in a user or their targets. Additionally, these small hooks maybe be detonated for a small charge in case of emergency.
Pants - Duraplast tri-weave Fabric with Micronized Durasteel
- Pockets, bro, pockets.
Boots - Duraplast, Duraplast tri-weave and Durasteel plating
- In the heels and achilles tendon section of the boot are small rocket-packs, meant to either give a one time use in close ranged combat, emergency mobility, or in the cold of space to get back to the ship or to board an enemy ship.
- Left Boot has a chamber for a small K-Bar.
- Right boot possess a small chamber to house various small items, be it a data pad, another knife, explosives, whatever the user needs. Khivas personally carries a small thermite flare to burn through artillery emplacements and similar obstacles when igniting a lightsaber just might be frowned upon.
