The Phase III Velmoran combat armor was designed to improve upon the shortcomings of the previous phase, namely in reducing its bulkiness and weight. It succeeded through the use of more rounded plating which still retained a great deal of thickness and offered comparable protection to the previous phase, in addition to greater coverage. While the specifications required a greater degree of quality in manufacture, the sheer loss in weight over the previous armor resulted in a much lower production cost over its predecessor. Thick, elastic straps replaced the older rigid straps and attachment points, while those and the inclusion of a rail systems were integrated to provide multiple, modular mounting points on the chest, shoulders, sides, thighs, and shins, supplementing the belt which now

  • The Phase III Velmoran combat armor was designed to improve upon the shortcomings of the previous phase, namely in reducing its bulkiness and weight. It succeeded through the use of more rounded plating which still retained a great deal of thickness and offered comparable protection to the previous phase, in addition to greater coverage. While the specifications required a greater degree of quality in manufacture, the sheer loss in weight over the previous armor resulted in a much lower production cost over its predecessor. Thick, elastic straps replaced the older rigid straps and attachment points, while those and the inclusion of a rail systems were integrated to provide multiple, modular mounting points on the chest, shoulders, sides, thighs, and shins, supplementing the belt which now came stock with a stun grenade, three thermal detonators, two medkits, and two ammunition magazines (1,000 rounds). Life support was moved to a much smaller compartment beneath the back plate of the armor. Additional equipment pouches for gas magazines and other materials were moved to the webbing on the lower torso to either side of the ribs. Medics and specialists would mount such equipment in this area. The modularity of the remaining points allowed for much greater specialization through the addition of supplemental ammunition, grenades, and medkits, as well as the integration of sidearms. The DL-2000 and DL-2000B blaster pistols became standard issue to PGAF Marines and A.I.R., and usually were strapped to the left or right thigh mounting point. The great reduction in space taken up by the back of the armor allowed for a greater variety in combat loads, and the HARP-51 standard came back into use, although camouflage patterns between the armor and issued gravpacks did not always match. The helmet became a mounting point for camouflage netting, as well as decals and labels distinguishing the wearer from other marines, displaying both their last name and unit or command. A blank red square indicated that the wearer was either a trainee or adviser, and the decals were often used to confuse enemies. The Phase III armor had no significant standard differences between issues to regular marine and A.I.R. units, although towards the end of the war, A.I.R. units were permitted to experiment with different camouflage schemes while Marines were restricted to the traditional patterns offered by previous armors: Urban (standard), Forest, Desert, Arctic, and Low-light.
