Any idea what does BADTFL mean? BTW check with your lawyer's eye Federal government (I am missing long arguing) --dotz 11:16, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Isn't some of the newly added stuff too speculative? I don't recall any references to kevlar in Fallout, especially that since kevlar was invented in 1965, it wouldn't fit the retro setting. Ausir 23:27, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Shi dealt with polymers to obtain materials suitable for CA.--dotz 05:33, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Sure, it's made of polymers, but not specifically kevlar, since the name kevlar is an anachronism in the Fallout universe. Ausir 10:33, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Only if all that divergence blablahs mean, that they didn't invented word "kevlar" in their XX-XXIth centuries. I can agree this word probably is not present in canon - a good solution could be more distant description: "kevlar-like". Anyway crucial is chemical formula, not the name. --dotz 16:01, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

This article seems to be quite complex work - may be Combat Armor MkII should be merged here (and other similar level/ similar looking armors)?--dotz 08:14, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Anyone else think there is an uncanny resemblance between Combat Armor, and the stuff the bad guys wore in the Road Warrior? Coincidence? I think not.

That's more along the lines of the Raider Armor. The Fallout 3 version of Combat Armor reminds me of the stuff that the space marines wore in 'Aliens'. 68.49.187.181 23:39, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
