Once you've researched [[UFO Power Source]], [[Personal Armour]], and [[Elerium-115]], you will have the ability to research the '''Power Suit'''. The power suit is a tremendous upgrade to the personal armour, providing double the protection value of the latter. Because of this increase in protection, it is not uncommon to survive multiple [[Heavy Plasma]] bolts to the chest, though this will often result in a badly wounded (but not dead) soldier.
The engineers have made another breakthrough. Their solution to the problem of [[Personal Armour]] being shot through by [[Heavy Plasma]] was to make the alloy armour plates thicker. When we pointed out that no soldier could move under the weight of inch-thick alloy plates, they jury-rigged one of the small [[Elerium-115|Elerium]] power sources to some motors that lifted the armour as the soldier walked. These new suits can stop 20% of the power of a [[Stun Bomb]] on a good day, they estimate. As a bonus, they are environmentally sealed against - and invulnerable to - fire and smoke.

Once you've researched UFO Power Source, Personal Armour, and Elerium-115, you will have the ability to research the Power Suit. The power suit is a tremendous upgrade to the personal armour, providing double the protection value of the latter. Because of this increase in protection, it is not uncommon to survive multiple Heavy Plasma bolts to the chest, though this will often result in a badly wounded (but not dead) soldier.

In addition to its protection qualities, the power suit's enclosed environment renders the wearer immune not only to fire but also stun damage from standing in smoke.

This armor is used in UFO: Enemy Unknown. In Terror from the Deep, the Ion Armor is the equivalent.
