NCR Salvaged Power Armor

"They have the best equipment the NCR can get its hands on, power armor salvaged from our war with the Brotherhood. Techs strip out the joint servos so you don't need special training to wear it. It feels like you're carrying a Brahmin on your back, but it can take a heck of a lot of punishment."

- Chief Hanlon describes the NCR heavy troopers

The NCR salvaged power armor is a piece of armor in Fallout: New Vegas.

Overview
NCR salvaged power armor is T-45d power armor recovered by the NCR during the NCR-Brotherhood War. NCR technicians have restored it to working order by replacing the back-mounted cylinders with a custom air conditioning module and stripping out the joint servomotors, allowing it to be used by soldiers without the need of power armor training, even though "it feels like you're carrying a Brahmin on your back". For identification, it has a yellow NCR Bear logo painted on its chest plate and red stripes on the arms.

The main differences from regular T-45d power armor are its white coloration, the lack of the original shoulder pauldrons, and parts missing from the legs.

Characteristics
Salvaged power armor does not require the Power Armor Training perk and does not have the usual +2 Strength or 10% radiation resistance bonuses of normal T-45d power armor. It retains the -2 Agility effect however, and also has a slightly reduced weight and damage threshold.

In terms of effectiveness, NCR salvaged power armor is bested in weight-to-DT ratio alone by the far lighter combat armor, reinforced mark 2, which has the same DT rating, weighs 20 units less, and also lacks any sort of Agility penalty. The only advantage it provides is that it possesses an item HP of 1000 while no version of combat armor has HP higher than 650.

NCR salvaged power armor is the most protective NCR disguise the player can obtain for most of the game, equaled only by the rare NCR Ranger combat armor.

Bugs

 * Like most of the larger, bulkier armors, when holstering two handed weapons, it tends to clip through portions of the armor, in this case most notably the air conditioner backpack.
