Description
The Tornado power armor (light) is considered one of the predecessors to modern battle armor. The battlesuit was created by ComStar to equip their special forces with to add protection. It incorporates stealth armor that makes it difficult to target at range, as well as an adaptive camouflage system that makes it even more difficult to see. The armor allows the Tornado to hide from all types of sensors. It also functions as protection, with enough mounted on the Tornado to stop a Flamer. The suit does not aid mobility in any way, so a Tornado squad is no faster than a comparable squad of foot infantry.
Armament
In a similar fashion, the Tornado mounts no integral weapon systems. It does, however, incorporate two armored gloves, allowing the wearer to use standard infantry weapons. The suit functions without the gloves as well, so a trooper can remove them to improve his or her manual dexterity.
