Introduced in 2570 by the [[Terran Hegemony]]<ref name="IOp36">''Interstellar Operations'', p. 36</ref>, '''Ferro-Carbide armor''' is a more advanced version of the [[Armor - FA - Aerospace Fighters|Ferro-Aluminum armor]] used by aerospace fighters and the [[Improved Ferro-Aluminum]] armor used on some [[WarShips]]. Like the Ferro-Aluminum series armors that came before it, Ferro-Carbide armor offers more protection per ton, but is roughly twenty-five times as expensive as standard armor.
