Power Armor (Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel)

Power armor in Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel is not like the power armor used by the Brotherhood of Steel, Enclave, or American military forces before the Great War. It does resemble the T-51b power armor a bit, however. The origin of this armor is presumably an attempt by Vault-Tec to produce some valuable combat equipment to help their own Secret Vault to successfully enter the post-apocalyptic world.

Vault-Tec had access to the vast knowledge of the government and other companies and probably tried to use all the technologies they could get access to. Having no option to manufacture or buy T-51b power armor in big amounts, they likely started their own research and produced something at least similar to the original.
