Patriot Mark I

Overview
The Patriot Mark I armor was completed on April 20th, 2014 just in time for the Boston Marathon 2014. Although eager to try out the armor, John was glad there was not a repeat of the previous years attack on Patriots Day. It would have been detrimental to the community he felt. It was field tested by Patriot on May 14th, 2014 at Frederick Douglas High School.

The Mark I was essentially a prototype armor that was designed as a testbed for the power suit idea that he had been inspired to created from the Iron Man movies as well as the Avengers.

Capabilities
Armored Shell: The armor was made of a space age polymer that provided advanced protection from small arms fire. Additional protection in the shell also protected from punches, falls, fire etc.

Enhanced Strength: The suit enhanced the strength of the user. It enabled the user to quadrouple their normal lift limits.

Enhanced Senses: The suit enhanced the senses of the wearer. This was a broad enhancement to all senses the user might use.

Enhanced Recovery: The suit enhanced the recovery rate of the wearer through a series of stim drips fed to the user.

Protected Senses: The suit contained tinted eye covers as well as auditory suppressors for the ears, to protect against sensory overload.

Protected Environment: The suit was built with a thermal vacuum glove that would regulate the bodies temperature and pressure enabling the wearer to survive readinly in such environments. The air was filtered and recycled through the suit cutting off any potential biological or chemical attacks, and scrub to remove any radiation contaimanents.

Protected Systems: The suit was built with protected systems to prevent drains from overly affecting the suits functions.

Flight System: The suit had a basic flight package.

Flare: The prototype had a low powered flare system that could be used to blind individuals as a means to remove them from combat. In the field tests the flare proved ineffective against off the shelf protective gear such as firing goggles.
