SPECIAL FEATURES
*
With varying thickness and degrees of layers, the IEA's primary defense system is an armor weave exterior. This allows them a very flexible design while maintaining a rather high resistance to blaster fire and physical damage, and some resistant to lightsabers (particularly in the more hardened places, such as torso, and not on the joints.
Beneath all this is the environmental and Mirror armor design. The suit is designed to survive a vast array of planetary conditions and even space for a time as well. With resistance to temperatures, some radiation, gasses, electricity, and air pressure. In addition this environmental suit was surrounded by a Mirror layer that would hide the temperature and life conditions of the wearer, making them fail to show up on life-scanners and appear dead even if actively moving.
The helmet of the IEA's possessed a heavily encoded comms system that could also recognize and send messages through facial expressions and movements, 360º vision, a HUD that showed connected cameras or the sight of their allies, had a sound sensor to increase and decrease their hearing, and infrared and ultraviolet light sensors.
The suit additionally features an oxygen tank for an hour, and the helmet can filter oxygen out of most gas type planets and water.
The feet, hands, knees, and back, can be magnetized to grab onto surfaces allowing them to go in locations that are otherwise extremely difficult. This also allows them to magnetically pull on objects from a distance such as blasters, lightsabers, etc, by upping the electromagnetic power. It is effective on most things up to three meters away, at 3.5 or 4 it becomes much weaker but could pull something that is not resisting as much. Getting to around 5 meters and it may not be strong enough or may take awhile. This is done by increasing the power to the magnet thus its distance allowing it to pull on things from a greater distance. Though it is mostly a focused pull being strongest where they are aiming, it may also pull on other things but with a lesser force.
Designed to be able to move quietly and stealthily.
The built in Electro-Gauntlets, whose blades can be set to aim in either direction (backwards can work more as a shield and to move easily, while forwards can make them work as more offensive weapons). These gauntlets are sharp on their own, but are capable of preforming a electro-staff like function that gives them resistance to lightsabers and blasters and letting them stun or kill even if they can't cut through their opponent.
The armor often features straps or pockets, along with locations for ammo, letting them carry multiple weapons easily.
The helmet and
Strengths:
-Hides users life signs
-Quiet as the night
-Great Blaster and Good lightsaber resistance
-Multi-environmental design to be used almost anywhere at least for some time.
-Capable of magnetizing itself in certain spots.
-Powerful gauntlet blades that use a design similar to electro staffs.
-Easily adds weapons and ammunition to it.
-Less necessary mobile parts, along with helmet, are formed with Duraplast, to further their strength and durability.
Weaknesses:
* -Expensive: The suits are quite expensive due especially to the mirror and environmental suit placed within, as well as the amount of tech that was put into the helmets. These cannot be mass produced easily yet.
-Weak points: There are points at the joints where there is less Armorweave to protect them such as the backs of the knees, soft of the elbow, and underarms.
-Battery life: While it can recharge using a variety of inputs, even including just sunlight. Active use of the machine, particularly the helmet, mostly the helmet, can cause the suits to drop in power in a span of just two to three hours.
DESCRIPTION
(
The creation of far superior clones, the Elites, came with the possibility of using technology to maximize their abilities in combat. Using a mixture of technology to allow them to easily enter and survive any environment, as well as built in weaponry that on its own made them a threat to almost any target, and a mobile but very durable armoring, the IEA works as a sufficient supplement to the assassins, infiltrator's, and best of the best, of the Grand Army of the Republic.)
