Notes[]

This armor is extremely weak compared to the other types of armor that can be researched in the game and offers minimal protection by itself. It can be supplemented by equipping a Nano-fiber Vest, Chitin Plating, or Respirator Implant in an item slot, but researching stronger armor types is critical to the survivability of XCOM's soldiers and should be given a high priority.
