Advanced Power Armor (Fallout 2)

This Advanced Power Armor was created by Enclave R&D after the Great War. It is composed of lightweight metal alloys, reinforced with ceramic castings at key points. The motion-assist servo-motors appear to be high quality models as well, giving the wearer a +4 strength bonus. It was issued primarily to troopers operating on the United States mainland, with the Enclave insignia prominently displayed on the breastplate while rank indicators were usually painted on the shoulders of the armour.

Later, the superior Advanced Power Armor Mk II was introduced, and by 2277 it became the standard issue Enclave Power Armor.

Timeline

 * 1) 2198: Enclave works on various new technologies, including Power Armor variations. None of these are much of an improvement over the conventional old school Power Armor, and some are actually worse.
 * 2) 2215: Under Presidential Order, Enclave scientists begin to work on an upgraded version of Power Armor. Many prototypes are developed and tested.
 * 3) 2220, October: Enclave scientists develop a reliable version of the Advanced Power Armor. The prototype results (and accidents/explosions/deaths) are classified by order of the President Richardson for the sake of morale.

Location

 * Navarro, in a locker in the subterranean-level.
