SPECIAL FEATURES

• Integrated Radio: A Radio Integrated into the armor's helmet, allowing the user to communicate with allies in close proximity.
• Rudimentary Heads Up Display: The simplistic HUD is synced with the weapon of the user, to show real time ammo counts. It can also show the positions of allies within 10 meters.

STRENGTHS

• Shrapnel Protection: The Kevlar undersuit was designed with shrapnel in mind, making it extra difficult for explosions to cause injuries at a distance.
• Metal Plates: The thick metal plates attached to the armor enable high resistance against ballistic attacks, though it is not impenetrable.

WEAKNESSES

• Heatable Metal: The Alloy used for the metal plates on the armor is vulnerable to heat based weaponry due to its high thermal conductivity. Furthermore, it is likely to incinerate before it melts.
• Ballistic Centric Design: This armor is really only designed to counter ballistic and kinetic threats, with the side effect of it being insufficient against other weaponry.

DESCRIPTION
The lessons of Meu I's Civil War taught millennium they needed and new armor system. The urban combat in Garkin City and dense forest fighting elsewhere meant the number one and two killers of troops was a lack of awareness and lack of enough time to react. The M2 SIAS was designed to be effective against all known weaponry, and adequately fit that job; until Millennium was introduced to the Galaxy at Large.
