The Infantry Armour, was a basic design to keep troops alive, on the battlefield. Whist also not hindering there movement, unlike medium and heavy armours, it was designed for the vacuum of space. The only thing was design for was combat, in standard oxygen/nitrogen atmosphere. So it had protection, from kinetic, blasters and slugs, as well as knives. Though a lightsaber would just cut through it, as making thing lightsaber resistant, was expensive, and not really warranted.
The armour was basically as armour weave body glove, with a plastoids used to protect joints, and chest and the back. This allowed the operative, hit the deck, and quickly kneel into position, without worrying about any vegetation, or rocks hurting them. It had a lot pockets for grenades, and medkits, as well as a rebreather for toxic atmospheres. The helmet had a basic heads up display, which was not very good, but was useful in low light, or against flash or smoke grenades.
The colour of the armour, was always depending on the terrain they would fighting in.
Strengths:
- Blaster Resistant
- Vulnerable to Lightsabers
