Advanced Riot Gear

The advanced riot gear is a suit of armor in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Lonesome Road.

Characteristics
The Advanced riot gear appears to be a more heavily armored version of the riot gear. The shoulder pads are bulkier and worn on top of the duster, and the chest plate seems to be slightly greener. There seems to be some kind of forearm protection on the right arm. It also has a faded 11th Armored Cavarly Regiment emblem on the helmet. The suit itself looks a lot thicker and the duster looks darker. The eyes of the helmet glow red at night, much like the NCR Ranger combat armor during the Fallout: New Vegas intro. The helmet's air-filtering system seems to be more advanced. There is a Flashlight on the side of the helmet. However, this cannot be used by the player or any other character.

Locations

 * Found on the body of an NCR riot control officer in The Crow's Nest.

Behind the scenes
The history of the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment goes back to 1901 when it was founded. The actual unit itself is stationed in present day Death Valley at Fort Irwin, California, which is halfway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
