The lightweight material has a lower DR and must be repaired with Composite Repair Kits, but unlike combat armor you'll have access to most power armor upgrades (including Aramid UnderArmor and the new StimJack health regeneration system). At roughly the same weight as combat armor, it can be run with a reduced power output to significantly reduce operating noise, while still providing a slight boost to speed and carryweight. It will only be available as equipment randomly in the use of Enclave troops (who will of course be stealthed).Ĭomposite T-45d is for people who can't make up their mind on the whole power armor or combat armor issue. The stealth field consumes power at a moderate rate, though without conversion kits this armor is powered by a nearly inexhaustible MicroFusion Pack, so that won't be much of an issue.

Engaging the stealth field triggers 'quiet mode' where the armor is run at a reduced power output, reducing noise but also reducing speed. This armor sports quiet joints, low noise, high precision servos, and an integrated stealth field. There will be three semi-unique armors added to the game: Just an update on what I've been working on most recently.
