Combat Armor, Reinforced Mark 2

The  is one of the best forms of protection in the post-War Wasteland.

Background
A new version of combat armor, designed to replace the regular reinforced combat armor, this high tech suit was created as a heavier, more protective armour reserved for use by American shock troops and special forces.

Characteristics
This armor provides the same level of protection that is offered by NCR Ranger Combat Armor but can actually be purchased from vendors. It appears to have much thicker armor plates than regular reinforced combat armor that not only completely cover the torso, shoulders, knees and lower legs but has forearm guards along with several pouches located along the upper thighs and waist.

Locations

 * In an abandoned campsite east of Ranger Station Foxtrot and west of Brewer's Beer Bootlegging in a duffel bag with various other loot; note that the campsite is swarming with cazadores. Follow the trail up to, and past, Brewer's Beer Bootlegging into the hills behind the Brewer's Bootlegging shack. The campsite is in the hills between the two locations with bones strewn about and the duffel bag sitting next to a rock pile and a corpse that has been cut in two.


 * Can also be purchased from the Brotherhood of Steel, Gun Runners and from Daniel Contreras

Bugs
In certain cases, the pipboy model will seem to 'sink' into the player model's forearm resulting in an aesthetically displeasing look. Note that this is purely cosmetic and that there is no effect on gameplay from having the pipboy embedded in your arm.

If the armor is equipped and another one of the same kind is purchased from Contreras, it will not appear in the inventory. However, if the armor is removed from the player's inventory and another one is bought, it appears to be in perfect condition regardless of what condition it was while Contreras had it.

Appearances
appears in Fallout: New Vegas.
