Environmentally Friendly: Designed to protect troops from not only vacuum but other possibilities such as a transport crash landing and protection from the elements.
Light as a Feather: Due to the lightness of the material used in the production of the armor, it is flexible and easy to move in.
Back in the Fight: Thanks to the Biorestorative Underlay and its included Adrenal Stims, wounded troops may get back in the fight faster. Those seriously wounded can be stabilized, lasting longer until medical help arrives.
Weaknesses
Resistance: This set of armor is not designed for flight, or otherwise offer protection from personal weapons. Due to the lack of protection, there is only average resistance to Blasters or weapons such as Slugthrowers (firearms), making these weapons lethal should they strike a vulnerable or critical spot on the armor.
Bluescreen: Many features in this armor, including the Adrenal Auto-Injector within the Underlay will shut down if hit by an EMP or if fired upon with any firearm, which the armor has only decent resistance against.
Force User: Though, many enemies can be Force-sensitive, using the Force and Lightsabers, the armor offers no protection against either. It also does not offer protection in hand-to-hand or close quarter combat.
DESCRIPTION
As the Resolute Army began to prepare itself to make its presence known to the galaxy, they lacked the armor necessary to provide to troops who would conquer all in their path. They required a manpower as yet unseen. Fleets and staff were organized and quickly put to work. As recruitment began and continued, the Resolute Army Logistic Officers began to design and develop a standardized set of armor for the soldiers. They designed an armor that would protect against environmental hazards and allow men to get back into the fight far more efficiently than before, as they knew that every trooper was needed in any endeavor.
The armor was designed exactly around this premise, providing high protection from their surrounding environment as well as providing average protection from blasters and various other firearms that previous standard armors already fulfilled. It was also for this reason that a Bio-Restorative Underlay was included in the design, in order to stabilize seriously wounded troops post transport crash or even after they have been wounded. Adrenal Stim auto-injectors were added to aid in refocusing the soldier and preventing him or her doing more damage, if possible.
Blaster or Slugthrower fire will break through it quite quickly, and a lightsaber will easily slice it to shreds, along with the man or woman inside. The suit is not designed with the long-term in mind. If a soldier is not rescued beyond when his/her suit stops being useful, then s/he most likely isn't going to make it at all.
