Combat Rig

A Combat Rig is a military combat suit introduced by the Settlement Defence Frontier (SDF). It serves as a hybrid between traditional armored gear and an astronaut suit.
== Overview ==
Designed for both space and planetary combat, the Combat Rig combines the functionalities of astronaut suits and traditional military gear. Equipped with compact thrusters, the Rig eliminates the need for an external oxygen tank, providing oxygen independence for the wearer in space environments.
The Rig features thrusters that act like a "jetpack" in space, facilitating mobility and allowing soldiers to navigate in zero-gravity environments. It also aids in enhanced jumping capabilities on planetary surfaces.
The suit incorporates protective armor, shielding soldiers from environmental hazards, ballistic threats, and the vacuum of space. However, the degree of protection varies based on the specific Rig model. Characterized by a uniform appearance, the Combat Rig often features a crimson color scheme, with variations for specific environments. The helmet, with a unique design, provides protection and may include additional technological features.
Some advanced versions, like the FTL Combat Rig (XPROTO), integrate sophisticated technology, such as advanced HUDs, phasing capabilities, and compatibility with experimental weaponry like the ERASER ARRAY.
