Weight: 22kg
Composition: Plasteel shell w/ a layer of Durasteel underneath the plates.

Description: This armor, first created and manufactured by members of the Mandalorian Crucible during it’s time raiding, is designed to allow Mandalorian Soldiers a tactical armor for use in extensive campaigns in a multitude of environments.
The armor is comprised of connected plates covering approximately 75% of it’s wearer. There are no plates across the sides of the armor, as well as places on the arms and legs. The armor is only designed to protect a soldier’s vital areas, and allows for optimum maneuverability in combat with maximum protection.
Each plate is constructed with a layer of plasteel and a layer of durasteel, each layer half the width of a regular armor plate. The plasteel’s purpose is to primarily protect against the energy in a blaster bolt, while the hard durasteel protects against shrapnel, explosions, and solid projectiles. The layers are bonded together and sealed, creating a single solid plate.
Each plate is linked together with solid durasteel couplings, attacked on both sides of the plating to ensure they don’t become detached in combat. Each plate is also attached to the bodyglove or jumpsuit underneath using metal attachment points.
The armor comes equipped with attached waist pouches, capable of carrying a multitude of items such as tools, grenades, detonators, ammo, etc. It also has variable magnetic boots, which can be controlled from the Gauntlet.
The helmet has an integrated HUD, which helps the operator manage comms and track targets. It can also be used with an integrated or external rangefinder.
While the Accord is capable of producing a limited amount of these, most current models are modified versions taken from the Crucible’s former days. This also means most current units have been repainted from their stock green to fit the current or former owner of the armor.
