The Talon combat armor and matching Talon combat helmet are pieces of armor in Fallout 3.
Background
Combat armor is a diverse family of personal body armor with varying degrees of sophistication, ranging from the earliest iterations developed by the United States Army[1] to the cutting-edge riot gear that came into use prior to the Great War.[2]
Characteristics
The Talon combat armor is the combat armor issued to all of the mercenaries who work for Talon Company. The matching Talon combat helmet is a unique helmet which can only found on Commander Jabsco, the group's local commander in the Capital Wasteland, in Fort Bannister.
This armor and helmet are black colored variations of the traditional combat armor. The suit bears the Talon Company logo in white on the left breast.

Locations
The armor can be obtained either by killing a Talon Company merc or finding a suit in the Mothership Zeta add-on. Fort Bannister is filled with mercs, so even evil characters will be able to find a limitless supply of the suits.
The helmet can only be obtained from Commander Jabsco in Fort Bannister.
Bugs
- When you drop the Talon combat helmet on the ground, it Isn't black like it should be. Instead, it uses the basic world model as the combat helmet.
- If you have two Talon combat armors in your inventory and are wearing one, the one not being worn will take any damage against your armor, effectively giving you invincible combat armor.
- ↑ The Army helmet is presented in the game as an older type of helmet, issued to uniformed troops who do not use the standard set of combat armor: Clearly visible in the tutorial segment and later on countless dead bodies throughout the Commonwealth
- ↑ Riot gear variants available in Lonesome Road.
