AIA/CHILEAN MILITARY
STEALTH ARMOR 1865EB
The Chilean military does not have funds to equip even its most elite special forces team with Therm-Optic camo, instead the opt to issue the color changing AIA stealth armor. Theentire suit features a chameleon coating which allows it to switch between up to 20 pre-programmed colors and patterns at the flick of a switch. The suit itself is mildly protective (SP: 8) and has additional armor plates on the chest, arms, and legs, (SP: 10) provide a bit more protection. The suit is also thermal dampening, and the helmet (SP:20) features LL, IR, AD, and a radio.

ARASAKA
GHAST SUIT (SP:14) EV-0 2675
This body suit was designed for stealth missions and is
made from thermal dampening fibers that reduce the body
heat signature to that of the outside temperature.
While the suit moves freely and is highly flexible it
becomes extremely uncomfortable after extended periods
of time due to the thermal dampening properties, which
do no allow body heat to escape at all. The Suit
is sold with a mask, to complete the effect.

ARASAKA
Mamba Stealth Suit 8750eb
Used by Arasaka Special Forces when Stealth is of the utmost importance, this is Arasaka upgraded therm-optic camoflage. The therm-optic skin is woven into the same material Datafilm is made from, only 10 times thicker (provides an SP:12 rating). In addition the suit has built in pouches on each leg that can serve as a holster for a side-arm or storage for equipment, and a bandolier with a therm-optic camoflage coated knife and sheath or other gear. The finale to this suit is the helmet, which with the visor down features a full VRI interface tied in to the helmets internal radio, laser comm, low light, radar, targeting scope, thermograph, tele-optics, and image enhancement. In case the helmet electronics go down, or something obscures the sensors, the visor can be flipped up allowing the trooper normal vision. These suits are well guarded, and fetch obscene amounts on the black market.


ARASAKA
SMGS SNEAK SUIT 18,000eb
In addition to providing therm-optic camo and thermal dampening, the MGS Sneak Suit also boosts the wearers strength (+2 BOD, does not effect cyberlimbs) and provides light armor (SP:12). This MGS is issued only to the highest level operatives, andwith its hefty proce tag, only the most dedicated professional can afford it on his own. This is Arasaka’s ultra-deluxe stealth suit, utilizing the best advancements in their technology. The suit comes with its own thermoptic capable helmet (SP: 18), able to equip 5 Optic options and 4 audio options. The suit comes with its onw webbing and holding, also Therm-Optic camouflage equipped.

ARASAKA Reactivewear Bodysuit
1140eb
(The wrist control sends a small electric charge into
the suit, causing it to change color. Primary
colors and black, gray, brown and white come, but you
can by an upgrade that allows any color variation to be
programmed for 300eb.)

ARASAKA
Seer Poncho 1050eb
The precursor to it all, the Arasaka Therm-Optic Camo Poncho was the original therm-optic camouflage gear, and is still popular today due to its lower cost and versatility. It is worn over clothes and most armors, but the down side is that it leave the legs, or at least the feet exposed, and the tech isn’t quite as advanced as the modern suits (only provides a -2 penalty to detection as opposed to the -4).

ARASAKA
Shinobi bodysuit SP:4 300eb
(This suit lowers heat signature to that of a small
animal when worn)

ARASAKA
Thermasilk Stealth Combat Suit
SP:10 1350EB
This suit eliminates body heat all together, the outer
skin of the suit reflects room temperature at all times,
the helmet is equipped with Low Light, Anti Dazzle, and
Thermograph.


ARASAKA/UNITED STATES MILITARY
Therm-Optic Camouflage 6800eb
Used by Special Forces when Stealth is of the utmost importance, while wearing this armor a soldier is virtually invisible to visual detection. Unfortunately due to the nature of the suit, very little equipment may be carried while wearing it and still be able to effectively utilize its therm-optic capabilities. (Torso SP: 10 rating)

AZTECH/MEXICAN MILITARY
Therm-Optic Camouflage 4600eb
The Mexican equivalent of Ghost Suit, a little bulkier (EV-2), but with a more streamlined helmet (SP: 18 torso, SP: 15 boots and gauntlets, SP: 10 thigh, shoulder, knee, and elbow pads, SP:15 helmet and facemask,) Mexican metals actually introduced some accessories as well, including gas filtering armored facemask, a GPS enabled gauntlet mounted micro-computer, and a shoulder mounted A/V recorder. The Therm-Optic system is equivalent to Chinas, just a step behind the US, EDF, and Russian suits.

CABAL
Full Thermal Dispersion Suit 7,950eb
IR ponchos and other such suits are great, they change
your heat signature from a man to that of a small
animal, or even smaller. This suit is better, it
uses refrigerants and heaters, all computer controlled,
to make your heat signature the exact temperature of the
air around you. This means that you are completely
invisible to any means of thermal detection, you give
off no heat signature whatsoever. Unfortunately it
also means that no skin whatsoever can be showing, and
you can carry very to no equipment. The suit
has only a 30 minute power supply, which must be
recharged for 5 hours after use.

CHINESE MILITARY
IR- Rain Poncho 150eb
Fully protects against body heat emission, as well as adverse weather

EGRET
Dingo Psych Suit 3450eb
This suit contains an array of highly specialized speakers, and can be set to generate an incredible amount of white noise, cancelling out most any sound short of a gunshot in a 2 meter radius, audio enhancers cannot overcome this, however seismic detectors will notice the vibrations caused by the sound up to 50 meters away. The suit can be switched to Anti-Resistance mode as the speakers switch frequencies and the suit acts like a wearable version of the Arasaka Nauseator (see Chrome 2) but with the field generated in a bubble around the user. The suit can also play music at incredible volume, and it is in fact a favorite tactic to silence an area, wait for a target to boost his auditory input because he can’t hear anything, then blast high frequency sound or music at the highest decibels to blow out their cyberaudio. The suit comes with a specially constructed enclosed helmet, that protects the user from the suits effects.


GOSSAR/EDF
THERM-OPTIC CAMOUFLAGE 6400eb
Manufactured by GOSSAR INC. of France, this armor is virtually identical in function and performance to either the Militech Ghost suit. It includes an armored vest (SP: 16) armored shin guards (sp: 10) and a holster and magazine pouch for the soldiers sidearm.

HAZE
THERM-OPTIC CAMOUFLAGE 5600eb
This is a European knock of Militechs Ghost Suit
supplied in limited number to Argentina’s
military. It includes helmet (SP: 18 torso,
SP: 15 boots and gauntlets, SP: 10 thigh, shoulder,
knee, and elbow pads, SP:15 helmet and
facemask,) The Therm-Optic system is
equivalent to Chinas, just a step behind the US, EDF,
and Russian suits.

MILITECH
GHOST II THERM-OPTIC CAMOUFLAGE Estimated 7500eb
A bit heavier armored than the version used by The
United States, Militech has anounced they will not sell
these, even to military or government clients, until
they have developed an even better version, allowing
them to stay just a bit ahead of
competition. Special Forces wear these
suitswhen Stealth is of the utmost importance, and while
wearing this armor a soldier is virtually invisible to
visual detection. In addition to extra armor, the suit
boasts comes with its own weapon holsters and equipment
pouches so stealth is not lost due to being lightly
armed. It also comes with a therm-optic camoflaged
weapon bag, for rifles or other long weapons.
Militech does sell the bag seperately
for 6000eb. (Torso SP: 14 rating, no encumberance
penalty).

MILITECH
Black Ops Bodysuit SP:4 200eb
(This suit lowers heat signature to that of a small
animal when worn)

POSEIDON
Ghostweave SP:6 2160EB
This suit, made from the same material as datafilm, both
lowers body temperature signature to that of a small
animal, and can change colors ala Arasaka's Reactivewear
Bodysuit.

POSEIDON
Therm-Optic Camouflage
As thin as a data suit but with a completely different
purpose. This suit is very similar to the Militech M95
Ghost suit but is far superior, as the wearer becomes
virtually invisible when the suit is activated. The suit
is very hard to detect, but a slight blur can be seen
when the wearer is in motion. As long as the wearer
stays still they are virtually impossible to detect.
While normally detectable by certain heat imaging optics
some suits can be made which reduce IR signature. No EV
penalties apply and this suit is usually worn under some
type of armor, which must be taken off before use. This
suit offers a -6 against visual awareness when standing
still and -5 when moving. Cost is 6000eb standard and
8000 with IR baffling. Available only to military. (Ghost
in the Shell)

ROSTOVIC/NEO-SOVIET
MILITARY
Jnz-4b Therm-Optic Camouflage 8400eb
Taking the best of both Arasaka and Militech innovations
this latest generation of Russian Therm-Optic Camoflage
is perhaps the best in the world. Offering full,
but flexible protection (SP: 14), and designed to work
even in harsh weather conditions (most therm-optic camo
will glitch in water) and thermal dampening, this suit
is nearly invisible, even in driving rain

ROSTOVIC
This Russian first generation version of the Militech
Ghost suit offers minimal protection (SP:5) and is a bit
more visible than the modern counterpart (-3 to notice
rolls instaed of -4) and has a tendency to glitch (every
ten minutes of use the suit fails on a roll of 1-2 out
10).
