NCR Heavy Trooper

"Some of the patrol rangers have reported that Oliver's power armor heavy troopers are starting to reinforce the front lines."

- Chief Hanlon

 are the elite infantry of the NCR in the Mojave Wasteland during 2281.

Background
Clad in NCR salvaged power armor, these elite troopers are the deadliest soldiers the Republic has at their disposal outside of the Rangers. Armed with heavy weapons, they are called upon to fight in the most important of engagements, where raw resilience and firepower is needed. At the final battle of Hoover Dam there is a pair of the Heavy NCR Troopers guarding the door to the control room, which Yes Man needs you to enter in order to install an Override Chip. This gives you the power to destroy the dam's generators, rendering it useless. This cements The Strip's independence for years to come.

Appearances
appears in Fallout: New Vegas. Apparently there is an occurence where two NCR heavy troopers can be seen at the 188 outpost. There are also two more that hang out in front of the Command Center at Camp Forlorn Hope. At anytime before the last mission there are two heavy troopers guarding the Visitor's Center at Hoover Dam.
