NCR armor

NCR armor is the official uniform of the New California Republic Army.

Characteristics
In about 2241, the standard for NCR soldiers was the common Combat armor.

In the year 2281, the official armor consists of a khaki tunic with bellowed hip pockets and khaki breeches, worn with a desert facewrap and hardened leather pauldrons, black leather fingerless gloves, arm wraps, brown boots and khaki puttees. A metal breastplate with the emblem of the NCR painted on is worn in combat, attached to two leather straps on the pauldrons. The breastplate itself appears to be questionable as useful armor. It provides a poor level of protection (DT of 10) and for its weight of 26 pounds, however with the Jury Rigging perk it is possible to use them to fix much more advanced and expensive medium armors such as Combat armor and both reinforced variants. It also disguises you as a member of the NCR.

Variants

 * Combat armor is worn by the NCR guards in the year 2241.
 * NCR trooper armor is worn by NCR troopers. All the other outfits are a variant of this.
 *  NCR bandoleer armor has a pocketed bandoleer wrapped around the torso, presumably to carry extra ammunition and other supplies.
 * NCR face wrap armor has the facewrap pulled over the user's face. This probably shields the user's face from the elements, especially with the goggles helmet on.
 * NCR mantle armor is distinguished by a camouflaged cloth wrapped around the user's shoulder. It is often seen being worn by officers but is also worn by NCO's (Sergeants and Corporals).
 * NCR Military Police armor is worn by NCR's MP officers. It is identical in appearance to the NCR trooper fatigues, except that this variant has a small black and white "MP" armband on each arm. It's helmet is black with MP written across it.
 * NCR injured trooper armor is worn by injured NCR troopers. This armor is marked as unplayable and can't be taken from the troopers corpse.
 * NCR trooper fatigues are identical in appearance to the NCR Trooper Armor, except for the chest armor. While all other NCR armors of this type have 10 DT and are Medium-class, this armor has 2 DT and is classified as light armor. It also seems that any form of NCR medium armor degrades slowly.

Appearances
NCR armor appears in Fallout 2 and Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * The game freezes when repairing/wearing/unwearing the NCR Bandoleer Armor found in the tent next to Lieutenant Hayes' Tent. Don't even go near it. This also happens in the Supply Shack at Camp McCarran. (Fixed as of 2011.03.01)
 * A number of dead NCR troopers found throughout the game wear armor that the player cannot loot. This is because they use a variant of the armor marked as unplayable in the game's files. However, these suits are exactly like their usable counterparts, save for a placeholder Pip-Boy icon. Why this was done is unknown.
 * When wearing the NCR face wrap armor, taking it off will not remove the reputation effects. You are able to fix this by putting on the armor again and then taking it off.  Make sure it says "You are now dressed as a member of NCR" when you put it on, and "You are no longer dressed as a member of NCR" when you take it off.
 * When wearing certain NCR armors: while "zooming in" without a weapon equipped a thick black line is produced across the screen as long as you are zooming.
