Description:
With recent contracts with other companies draining much of The Orion Corporation profits, they needed a new product to start bringing in extra credits. Luckily for The Orion Corporation their newest creation in armour systems, the Adaptable Combat Armour or ACA for short, promises to fulfil this need. This new armour diminishes the amount of protection it offers, but allows for easy manoeuvrability.

The ACA is designed to be worn on top of a bodysuit as the lower plating of the armour is flexisteel and considered uncomfortable by users. This flexisteel plating offers a small amount of protection against projectiles such as those produced by low power fragmentation grenades. However this plating will not protect the wearer from any high energy projectiles or energy based projectiles. The Flexisteel also allows the wearer to move freely with the suit on, as the plates move with the body unlike other armours where the body moves around the plates.

A minimal amount of high quality plastoid plating has been added to the suit to form the outer armour. This plating is only attached to main parts of the body. These parts include: the torso, right forearm, left forearm, right upper arm, left upper arm, right upper leg, left upper leg. This low amount of plastoid is able to block and disrupt low energy weapons, but anything more will be able to pierce the material easily. Because of the small amount of this plating it doesn't allow the wearer to be completely protected.

Allows for high manoeuvrability
Lightweight
High quality armour
Cheap to manufacture

Small Amount of Armour
Requires bodysuit
