The Advanced Power Armor Mk II, also called Enclave Power Armor, is a designation for a series of models of the Power Armor used exclusively by the Enclave military forces, developed after the Great War. Like its older brother, the standard Advanced Power Armor it's matte black with a menacing appearance, but with a few significant differences - it appears to be composed entirely of lightweight ceramic composites rather than the usual combination of metal and ceramic plates.

Early versions (used by the Enclave in the 2240s), while composed of different materials, used the same design as the earlier Advanced Power Armor. By 2277, the Enclave redesigned its appearance while keeping the ceramic composition and the "Advanced Power Armor Mk II" designation.

In Fallout 3 the Advanced Power Armor Mk II is referred to as Enclave Power Armor in the game menus, however when mentioned in in-game dialog it is referred to as Advanced Power Armor Mark II. The set consists of two pieces, a suit of body armor and helmet. Like all power armors, Power Armor Training is required to wear it. It carries one less strength bonus than the Capital Wasteland Brotherhood Power Armor , but one less agility hit as well (In other words, +1 Str and -1 Agi instead of +2 Str and -2 Agi). There is also a 5% radiation resistance increase. Enclave Power Armor is also slightly more durable than standard Power Armor, and its condition degrades a bit slower as it takes damage.

Dialogue between Brotherhood of Steel characters indicates that the Enclave's Power Armor is significantly more advanced than the Brotherhood's, with Brotherhood Paladins expressing concern that their standard bullets may not even be able to penetrate it. In actual gameplay, however, Enclave Power Armor is identical to Brotherhood Power Armor in terms of damage resistance.

Aesthetically, this version of the Enclave Power Armor bears a strong resemblance to the Midwestern Brotherhood Power Armor seen in Fallout Tactics. The helmet of this armor appears to be quite different from the helmets shown in Fallout 2 (although this might just have to do with a change in the artistic concept between the two games).

[edit] Appearances

The Advanced Power Armor Mk II appears in Fallout 2 and Fallout 3. Note that its appearance in Fallout 2 is identical to that of the standard Advanced Power Armor, while 'standard' advanced power armor doesn't appear in Fallout 3. In Fallout 3, the appearance of the armor was totally changed, but it is still referred to as "Advanced Power Armor Mk II" in dialogue.
