Time: 200 days
For: LAKST
Name: PCVH
Upgraded from: Bullet Proof Vests
The Powered Combat Vest and Helmet goes onto every LAKST. It sits on their chest and head repsectively and provides plenty of space for weapons and munitions placement. The vest has two straps connecting the two main pads on the back of the shell and and the frontal side of the LAKST on top of the shoulders, and 2 under the armpits. The Helmet is stronger and thicker then the vest but holds no room for weapons and munitions placement. The Helmet also has 1 eyepiece worn to allow for a HUD. The Helmet is tied on with a strap that is near impossible to get off, and the vest is also hard to get off due to the strap placements.
Defense:
The PCVH cools the LAKST in areas of intense heat, like in a volcano. In places like mountains, the PCVH warms the LAKST, allowing them to retain more energy. The helmet and vest are fireproof, and take no damage from fire either. Phasers, laser, and other light based weaponry are mostly absorbed by the vesr and helmet. 1/4 of the normal damage actually goes through to the LAKST, while the vest and helmet take no damage. Bullets don not pierce the vest, they simply damage it. Once the vest has been damaged enough, the bullets start to go through. The 'damage' doesn't actually harm the vest, but rather drains it's bullet defense energy. More energy can be gained from most electrical devices via a plug in the suit, or the LAKST can simply pick up one from an already dead LAKST. Explosions are also mostly absorbed the the PCVH, but some of the damage still goes through to the LAKST.
Augmentation:
The PCVH stores all weapons and munitions the LAKST carry. It does this all while weighing in at the same weight of a normal Bullet-Proof Vest. This allows LAKST to run faster, and hit harder. The Helmet also allows LAKST to see through infared or night vision to help the LAKST track enemies more easily. This can be put on one eye or both. The LAKST can now also jump much higher, by using small rockets to push the LAKST upwards. The Helmet also aplifies sound to the user's personal set level, allowing it to be turned down or up with the situation. A small radar is located on the normal eyepiece in the HUD. Tactical maps of the area can also be seen, allowing for more stratigical movements. If in a base, then only the explored parts will be shown. Finally, small radio communication devices are present within all helmets, allowing the LAKST to effectively communicate with each other at all times.
