Keeps the user smoothly held in air with a stabilizer chassis attached to the leg, so your natural instinct to screw it up is cancelled out. Powered with a small energy cell about the size of your Calcaneus that can stay stable mid-air for approximately 7 months without fail.

This plating uses a set of unique systems that can each block one kind of attack with extreme prejudice, but due to allowing full control of the plating to each system, can only use one at a time. Works over your currently equipped armor, so damage from even rockets may be lowered into what feels like a small tickle. ##----------------------------------------------------------------------------| == LITH_TXT_INFO_SHORT_DefenseNuke | $LITH_TXT_UPGRADE_TITLE_DefenseNuke == LITH_TXT_INFO_TITLE_DefenseNuke | Defensive Atomic Bomb @@ LITH_TXT_INFO_DESCR_DefenseNuke An extremely deadly slow-charge bomb that activates as you enter a dangerous area.

The package was created approximately 30 years ago by researchers at OFMD and AllPoint. Them both seeing the potential sales figures for such a device during a great war, OFMD and AllPoint signed a mutual contract to develop the package and share profits between eachother.
