Technical Name:: ArmTech AUH

Manufacturer: ArmTech

Model: Armored Utility Hardsuit

Affiliation: N/A

Ownership: Gabriel

Intent: Personal use.

Composition: Coltan-Titanium, Ceramic Scales, Armorweave

Type: Body Armour

Weight: 88lb (40 kilograms)

Rating: Proof against Low Caliber(9MM and below) Pistols, Shrapnel, and Weak Blasters. Proof against Vibroknives. Somewhat proof against Small Sized Rifle Rounds (6mm and below), depending on hit location(Proof if hit in the chest, resistant if hit in the limbs). Resistant against medium to large vibroweapons. Moderately resistant against Full Sized Rifle Rounds(6.5MM to 11MM), High Caliber Pistol(10MM and above), Medium and Infantry Heavy Blasters, and Plasma. Incapable of blocking anti-material(12MM and above) rounds, heavy repeating or vehicle mounted blasters, and other heavy anti-infantry/armor weapons. Is as good against a lightsaber as a piece of butter against a hot knife.

Composite Plates: The Armored Utility Hardsuit is formed from two distinct layers. The first and most visible layer is a series of composite armor plates. These plates are made of several distinct layers; the outermost layer is a thick ablative coating, which, in addition to defending against thermal and electrical attacks, vaporizes when struck with an energy weapon and diffuses the blast from aforementioned energy weapon, greatly reducing its effectiveness. The second layer is a unique ‘sandwich’ material, composed of two layers of interlocking coltan-titanium hexes plated over thousands of tiny honeycombed ceramic scales. This allows the armor plating to flex when struck, dissipating kinetic energy and helping to partly dissipate the concussive shock of explosions and melee attacks. The nonconductive nature of this layer also serves to render the suit proof against EMP. The third layer of each semi-flexible plate is a armorweave spalling liner, which absorbs any micro shrapnel that manages to make it through the segmented plates.

Helmet: The visor is made of shatter-resistant armor-grade transparasteel. The helmet seals into place on the neural collar, not only allowing the wearer to be in hazardous environments but as well as linking the helmet to the wearer’s mind much like the armor itself. The suit boasts an integrated comms, adaptive HUD, and on-board tactical computer, all of which are located in the helmet. The HUD displays the wearer’s vital signs, direction, ammo count, weapon status, crosshairs, IFF tags, and the location of any target that has been ‘painted’ for elimination through the use of an infrared laser designation system. The on-board tactical computer can be accessed either through the HUD or through a touchpad/holoprojector built into the left forearm, and, so long as the wearer is alive and the proper ID code is entered, it can be used to tap into the local ArmTech BattleNet, allowing the user access to local maps, targeting data, mission objectives, weather data, and more. In an emergency, the tactical computer can be isolated from the suit’s comms network by simply ripping the communication module from the rear of the helmet - a process that takes a trained soldier less than a second to accomplish. Built into the helmet is two rangefinder capable of tracking up to 30 targets from a distance of a hundred meters. The rangefinders fed data directly to a display overlay inside the helmet which in turn would show the range and movement of any targets in a three-hundred and sixty degree radius.

Body Glove: The armored panels are in turn affixed to the Utility Hard suit’s ‘shell’. The shell is the suit’s second layer, and contains the life-support systems, the locomotion systems, the power supply, the targeting computer, and all other suit functions - even the helmet is considered to be part of the shell. The shell’s outer layer is thick and rugged armorweave capable of protecting against handguns, and slim bundles of energy-efficient synthetic muscle are placed beneath this armorweave layer. The muscle is fixed in place along a form-fitting bodysuit, which serves as an insulator and serves to regulate the wearer’s body heat and monitor their vital signs. Between the two layers of the shell is a thick ballistic gel, which has just enough buoyancy to offset the suit’s considerable weight and serves to soak up the impact of any strikes on the hard armor plating.

Environmental Filter Systems: When the helmet is on and the body glove sealed, the armor can provide the wearer with two hours of breathable air from a reserve tank or filter environments indefinitely. Dual-intake UV/HEPA-filters. Traps particulates as small as 500nm, kills biological and neutralizes a wide range of chemical agents without compromising tidal flow. The re-breather is a function that is automatically activated by the suit when it is submerged in water (Or when oxygen is otherwise unavailable). The re-breather provides the wearer with breathable oxygen. It is capable of recycling exhaled carbon dioxide back into oxygen, and can also utilize the process of hydrolysis to break apart water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen, using the hydrogen to help power the suit, and giving the oxygen to the wearer to be inhaled. This process allows the user to stay underwater indefinitely.

Utility Belt: A high-tension wire, two grappling hooks, four spare blaster power packs, three ion flares, energy rations, a spare comlink, three water packs, two medpacs, two blast energy sinks, a thermal detonator, a combat de-ionizer.

Power Supply: Twin power packs are located in the heavily reinforced ‘spine’ of the armor; a single pack is capable of running the armor for 72 hours at full capacity, and combined, the two packs allow for a total of six days of combat operations without a recharge - the use of two packs also eliminates the possibility of a stray shot eliminating the suit’s power supply.

I don't think it have been used for a armour profile before, but I have used this image previously.

Some detail on the design's history would be nice, as fluff. The design process, etc. But that's just me and what I'd like to know about the design, completely non-essential to the business-like profile.

Is there any detail regarding the life support system? If it only monitors and regulates body heat, that's okay, but the lack of description of the system overall makes its function ambiguous.

It only monitors lifesigns, body heat and regulates the users body heat.
