DESCRIPTION
The plate carrier was designed by Setter after realizing that the Silver Jedi lacked a clandestine armor system. Setter wanted protection from ballistic and stab threats, but didn't want to wear bulky, heavy armor, that screamed 'shoot at me, I'm with the Silver Jedi'. The vest is easy to conceal under many jackets, and can allow Rangers and Razor team alike to operate in politically sensitive or even denied environments.

Setter needed the vest to allow for each member's individual preferences, so he opted for a universal modular webbing system along the outer edges of the carrier. As a result, the vest is up to each individual member to design, and implement their desired endstate. As a result, a litany of after-market pouches are available to each member, with an endstate of a highly custom piece of equipment for each individual, from patches to pouches.



Strengths:

• Allows for a wide range of motion, while offering protection for vital organs
• Well-rounded ballistic protection
• Stab protection
• Protects against physical trauma
• Very modular
• Easy to conceal under jackets

Weaknesses:

• Only protects covered areas, everything else is still squishy.
• Heavier than other ballistic vests.
• No CBRN resistance.
• Extremely vulnerable to lightsabers. Stay away from Jedi, Sith, and any other Space Wizards.
