Chinese Stealth Armor (Fallout 3)

The Hei Gui (Chinese:黑鬼), or Chinese stealth armor, is a piece armor in the Fallout 3 add-on Operation: Anchorage.

Background
Chinese stealth armor was used during the Chinese invasion of Alaska and was the Chinese solution to invasion by U.S. forces in power armor. It was available to elite Chinese Crimson Dragoon troops as well as the Black Ghost counter-insurgency/terror units before and during the Great War.

Earlier Hei Gui models were also used during raids against the Hoover Dam secret laboratory and Limit-115 laboratory.

Characteristics
The armor is a form-fitting armored jumpsuit, with stealth camouflage system embedded. It generates a modulating field that transmits the reflected light from one side of an object to the other, making a person much harder to notice (but not completely invisible). The technology was the basis for the unstable "Stealth Boy" wrist units developed in the U.S.

It has a damage resistance comparable to recon armor, but also increases sneak by 15 and the stealth field stat by 5 when crouching.

Location
It can only be obtained after the Operation Anchorage simulation. It is in the armory which you can open after completing the simulation.

Behind the scenes

 * In Mandarin Chinese, Hei Gui (黑鬼) literally translates to "black ghost".

Bugs

 * With the stealth suit on you can equip as many pieces of headgear that you want and raise many stats substantially. If you do this, and then equip another suit of armor (ex. power armor) you will still be wearing all the headgear. See Operation: Anchorage bugs for more details.
 * When a companion has the armor equipped and is crouching (activating the stealth field) you can trade items with him/her and swap the armor with another clothing article and when you exit dialogue the stealth field will remain whenever the companion is crouched. This is useful if you want to sneak through areas with a high concentration of enemies, (such as Evergreen Mills) without the possibility of the death of the companion.
 * If you pickpocket a stealth suit from a Crimson Dragoon, the stealth field will not activate when crouching, and the suit's stats are identical to those of the recon armor. Additionally, it lists under effects on the Pip-Boy as "Initiate's Armor".
 * Certain one-handed weapons like the Chinese pistol will cause the suit's textures to clip onscreen while reloading in the first-person view.
 * While performing the perk "Mister Sandman" with the stealth suit the lower part of the player would be floating and out of control.
 * When picking up the armor, it will spin when being held, making full circles, until it is dropped.
 * If you stare at the ground and swing a knife while crouching if first person, a part of the suit will clip into your screen.
 * Sometimes when equipping inclosed headgear like a power helmet, switching to the stealth armor, and removing the headgear will cause the player's head to seem gone.
