Imagine: > Full body frag coverage > Full body flame and flash protection > Loose, easy-to-wear garments that provide 100% range of motion > A kilt to protect the groin from frag, no ridiculous "frag-proof underwear" or dick plates that you can hardly walk in, let alone run in. > Full-body NIR camouflage. > Broken-up silhouette confuses enemies and drones.
The French were 50 years ahead of their time with this one, IMO.
It's yet another reason to despise the Soviet Union. If they could have held it together for just another decades or two imagine how much further along we'd have gotten in kino technology.
The armor is a typical Eastern soldier from what is known as the Post Atomic Horror. You know, the WWIII that Strange New Worlds was caused by the Jan. 6 incident.
That episode sucks, but Q's introduction is my favourite star trek scene of all time. Imagine getting told by an Alien dressed as a Marine to go back to earth and kill all the commies you can find, also I love how he's so visibly fricked up while in the WW3 uniform it's such great worldbuilding
French had experimental Space Balls parody-tier armor in the 1990s/early 2000s
do you remember the name? I've searched for it before after seeing it on here but I can never find it.
That wasn't France but I can see how you made the mistake.

Yeah, it was actually very good and effective, though.

Same energy.
looks cool ngl
Sweet, it comes with a Combat Skirt.
Yeah, but think about it. It's a good idea.
Too bad American military program officers go for style and the lowest-bidder over substance.
Theres no point in giving armor to infantry, as we found out centuries ago. Just give them a helmet and some pockets
>TNG enjoyer
Blessed.
What is this fine gentleman from? I'm liking the getup.
That's Q from Star Trek TNG you philistine

Not until there's something that can casually punch through level 5 hard armor.
Looks a bit like a Sfera helmet.

star trek is jank but the first episodes are always extra jank so I give it some slack
Graphene exists, capitalism just wants it to remain expensive.
Go make it cheap then, like aluminium
>aluminium
>cheap
this always stuck with me, it was really in your face
