// History //
With the decreasing survivability of a soldier on the battlefield nearing that of the American Vietnam War or WWII a new overhaul of the SS Fighters warfare suite to give him an hellish advantage over the enemy as a whole bringing survivability to where it was at the time of the American Gulf-War. This overhaul meant newer better armors, cutting-edge technology, and all around improvements on the soldiers aspect on how to survive.

This was also done to enhance the of an SS soldier on the battlefield as the SS lacked an enourmous army to defend it's self so it's new job was to increase lethality with what it had.

// Headgear Sub-System //

The Headgear Subsystem, described in the Concept by SSFF development the software of the headgear would be the hub of situational-awareness. It would include integrated tactical processing by providing maps, routes, and data with a 180° emissive visor display, high bandwidth wireless communications, micro-electronic/optics combat sensor suite that provides 360° situational awareness, and integrated small arms protection.

In the current development program, the SSFF this subsystem is labeled Sensors & Communications (S4C) Vision. Its current capabilities would provide networked SSFF-equipped small units with rugged team communications using encrypted standard SS waveform, state-of-the-art distributed and sensors, tactical intelligence/collection assets/software, enhanced situational understanding, embedded training, on-the-move planning, and possible linkage to other Future Combat System assets and systems.

Further explained, the visor protecting the eyes taking advantage of TTFT’s provides beautiful hyper hi-resolution and ultra fast computation of information and data as well as display of information in front of the soldier. All of this displayed information is transparent leaving the entire visor as it should be. A visor, while being able to tap into and view important information in real time without taking up valuable visor real estate and distracting the soldier.

Of these things are the basics which are on screen at all times.
Ammunition, and remaining ammunition reserves display. - Bottom Right
Health, by this is a small 4% scale man upon the screen in which slowly rotates displaying small dots where arms fire has pierced, or been intercepted by armor. Also on display is the area in which bones have been broken and vitals such as hydration, temperature etc… The vitals are shown in small meters - Bottom Left (Continued Talk in SSFF-Soldier PSMS)
A small screen which displays location according to GPS and maps recorded onto the dozen terabyte hard rive. Upon the map is the display of possible routes and the position of known hostiles. - Top Left
Small tags displaying name and vitals of fellow squad mates. - Center Left

// Combat Uniform Subsystem //

The SSFF project aims to help protect the soldier by providing full-body bullet and fragmentation protection. In the original idea, the Combat Uniform Subsystem, also known as Absolute Survivability, is subdivided into three layers, the Protective Outer Layer, the Power Centric Layer, the Life Critical Layer.
Currently, under the bullet-resistant armor provides protection to the upper arms, the upper legs and the chest and abdomen. These are currently made from bullet-resistant materials such as SQV-4000 and hard ceramics which can effectively resist hundreds of 7.62 NATO rounds.

// SSFF-Soldier Physiological Status Monitor Subsystem //

WPSM is an on-board physiological and medical sensor suite that would collect and monitor information regarding vital signs such as body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, hydration and stress levels, sleep status, body positioning and workload capacity of the warrior. If necessary, the PPSM can notify medics and commanders if the soldier has been wounded or has become fatigued.
Under the Advanced Technology Demonstration program, the physiological sensors of the PPSM are part of the Mobility, Sustainability and Human Performance Vision. The SS Army's overall vision for this unit would be to provide "On the Move hydration" and hydration monitoring, as well as monitoring of the soldier's constant states of health, and well-being.

// Micro-climate Conditioning Subsystem //

The Micro-climate Conditioning Subsystem, built into the Life Critical Layer, is a network of tubing that would provide 120 watts of heating or cooling to the soldier.
Currently, the Future Force Warrior Cooling System (SSFF-CS) being developed, circulates chilled water through a special heat-transfer garment. The cooled circulating fluid pulls metabolic heat from the soldier's body and transfers it into the environment through its condenser. The main condenser unit can provide 180 W cooling power in a 95 °F environment, with an average power consumption of 35 W and weighs 2.5 pounds, excluding the power source.


This all adds up to an ultra-flexable, light, super-deadly fighting force which can deal with the opFOR with ease.

This is not yet up for sale, as this is more of a OOC discussion thread and an IC thread where you can order up to 2 suites for testing. Also, IC there are small sensors all over the suite in case reverse engineering is attempted which warns me to nuke you. I'm not going to type up a several page essay on how this works but it does. So just don't do it please?

You created this thread just in spite of our debate didn't you? ;)


I knew i liked you! :cool:

OOC: Not really, the arguement, thanks to you sparked an idea to create one. Since I have a small military, I might was well make it leathal as hell in the process. No?

Haha! Good stuff man.

so this is a MT/PMT precursor to Mobile Suits? Like Heinlin's Space Marines...sorta like the AI backup you get when playing HALO?

We have a very similar military.We don't have massive numbers but we have elite soldiers that are highly trained.Also, I like the picture.Its from Ghost Recon right?

[OOC:] Modern Tech; it can easily be done. Also, it's kinda like Master-Cheif's AI except instead of a voice it's textual read-out on the top middle part of the screen.

OOC: How powerful is the radio set, because in Iraq the 'wired military' ground to a halt under high power lines because the EM field scrambled radios and rendered a lot of electronic device useless and soldiers had to rely on old fashioned intelligence and optical sights instead of electronic ones.

How long does the battery last?

How cool does the solider become? This may lead them to be more vunerable to IR sensing or is the fabric IR neutral?

How about camouflage, it works in an urban environment, is there a provision for woodland, jungle, etc.

How about camouflage, it works in an urban environment, is there a provision for woodland, jungle, etc.[OOC:] Battery set lays 10 days; and 4 hours of straight charging. Though of course thats the quick charger and it doesn't fill the battery to 100% more like 80 meaning it only lasts 8 days with use of the quick charge, 12 Hours with the normal charge for full 10 days. - Though I still haven't decided on high compacity battery cell or combustion fuel.

The most vounerable and vital parts are reggedly hardened against EMP feilds and it can provide up to a gigahert radio frequency for a small amount of time. Of course I don't know how much a gigahert radio frequency eats at a battery and the wattage it takes, so I am going to guess at about 1.2 Hours.

It uses 'Seal Skinz' like membrans which allows skin to breath though now allowing moisture in. At the same time does the same with heat and temprature and check the Micro Climate Conditioning System for further information on cooling and heating with the soldier.

SPL forces or this nations 'Special Forces/Delta Force' uses a small secret of mine which bends visible light around a soldier making them completely invisible to the naked eye. Of course though; depending on the location camo can be interchanged over the equipment in less than 1 minute due to the use of high durability polymers which get zipped on and off.

OOC: 10 days? No way, the only way it could even approach that is if it uses hyper-efficient parts and lithium-ion batteries. Lithium is the element that stores the greatest amount of energy thanks to the number of valence electrons it has. Nothing can surpass it, however, to produce a lot of amps needed to run this kinda stuff, lithium-ion batteries become unstable and can literally explode with significant force. 3 days is a good compromise, most armies only pack that amount of emergency rations anyway. Include a Solar Charger and a crank charger and you are set.

In the desert there is no moisture so it's perfect to have one gigantic military grade mobile solar collector constantly beaming power to soldiers. Meh too complicated; sounds good.
