User:SPARTAN-08BLAM!/M201 Advanced Assault Armor System

The  is the standard issue body suit issued to all soldiers in the Acacian Army. It took over 30 years to develop and was finally deployed 8 years after the final design was completed.

=Features= The Suit is self powered carrying a small fusion pack which powers everything aboard the suit. The suit is made up of many layers of different materials, such as a reactive metal liquid crystal layer, not unlike the one aboard the MJOLNIR armor.

Helmet
The helmet is where the entire suit is run. It contains the onboard micro-computer and is capable of sending messages through the entire suit at the speed of light. The helmet is where the armor is probably the thickest, to protect the users head, from shock or projectiles. The visor itself is made of several layers of different materials. The outer most layer is a super durable polymer that protects the users face from any type of damage. The next few layers are for projecting the heads up display and blocking out radiation and unnecessary light. The helmet also contains several optical enhancements, such as low light vision enhancement, infrared vision, electromagnetic field detectors and a special system that shows the user high levels of radiation. The helmet connects to the users brain through released brainwaves, literally picking up on thoughts before the user thinks them. In essence, this allows the user the fastest physically possible reaction times and speed.

Body Armor
The material that makes up the main armor of the entire suit is a type of titanium alloy often used on fighter craft. The alloy combines lightness with strength that reduces weight as much as possible but still retaining a massive amount of defense. On top of the users regular one-piece suit, there is a layer of soft synthetic padding that protects against extreme temperatures.After this is a thin protective layer of synthetic fibers that serves no other purpose but to protect the ligqui crystal layer. The next layer, is what makes the user a better version of themselves, the liquid crystal layer. Designed to enhance the users physical ability, as the soldier moves the suit, the suit moves the soldier. After this layer, is another synthetic woven fiber, meant to pad the delicate liquid crystal layer. On top of this lies the first layer of armor a light weight nano-woven synthetic fiber suit that is responsible for defending against kinetic based weaponry such as bullets, it is coated in a highly flame retardant liquid that prevents plasma from lighting the suit on fire. A thin layer of titanium-aluminum alloy that creates the second layer of armor. It is by far the lightest level of armor on the suit, but still retains a decent level of strength, and is meant to shield the user from light damage like small caliber weapons. The next layer is a titanium-carbide oversuit that provides the main armoring of the suit, it's highly durable against all types of damage especially kinetic weapons. The final piece of the suit is not a single piece at all, instead it is multiple overlapping plates that consist of a ceramic core that is covered in nano-woven synthetic fibers, which is then dipped in titanium carbide. These plates are by far the heaviest part of the suit, however it's also the most protective.
