Special Features
  • N/A

Strengths:
  • Light wight: Is quite light weight and easy to move in, not restricting the users much and thus idea for light trooper or scouts.
  • Cheap: Is easy to mass produce with low cost and material, making it idea for Tythe as it has to import all it's non agricultural goods.
  • Heat Resistant: Able to resist heat bases attacks from blasters, diruptor rifles and plasma with relative ease.
Weaknesses:
  • Direct Hits: Is unable to take direct hits from sabers, slugs and other ballistic based weaponry, meaning unless the user had some other armor on they will be injured.
  • Degrading: If damaged to much, eve if just scraping shots, the flak armor will need to be replaced/ as it will greatly waken the structural integrity of the fabric like materials used in it.
DescriptionFlak
Tythish Flack armour is manufactured from multiple layers of ablative and shock-absorbent materials which are intended to deflect and absorb the kinetic energy of a weapons strike or blow. The armour provides little protection from a direct weapons strike, though is sufficient in deflecting damage from shrapnel, adjacent, though not direct explosions, and ricochets etc.

The ablative properties of its ceramic construction are also excellent at heat dispersal, thus providing mor protection against blaster and disruptor rifles. This thermal-absorbent materials applied in the armour can also reduce the thermal signature of the soldiers using it and provide an enhanced capability to remain invisible to enemy forces during night reconnaissance missions.

Although Flak Armour is overall a relatively low grade of armour, it is incredibly cheap and easy to manufacture, and thus making it among the most popular forms of personal protection under regular armor.
