Metal armor

Metal armor is a type of armor that is used in the entire Fallout series.

Characteristics
It is simply any kind of armor manufactured from metal scrap and ancient relics.

While power armor is technically also made mostly of metal, it is more advanced in its characteristics and as such, is not counted as "metal armor".
