Heavy Ferro-Aluminum Armor

Description
Heavy Ferro-Aluminum was first developed in the early years of the Jihad by the Lyran Alliance, but soon spread to the Word of Blake via defecting mercenary units, and from there proliferated further. Heavy Ferro-Aluminum is similar in construction to basic Ferro-Aluminum, but further increases the weight saving over Standard Armor by varying the diamond fiber concentration within the structure of the armor.
