The suit is equipped with cooling and heating units that masks the infrared signature of the wearer, as well as creating a comfortable environment. The helmet has encrypted communications gear and a [[heads-up display]], along with thermal sensors and motion detectors. The whole suit is fully sealed and gas tight, making them wearable in vacuum for up to fifteen minutes when equipped with an oxygen tank. | The suit is equipped with cooling and heating units that masks the infrared signature of the wearer, as well as creating a comfortable environment.

Unfortunately, the suit's general complexity leads to complications. Over prolonged periods of time the suit will become very uncomfortable to wear, is difficult to repair in the field, and is often in need of repairs. The suit also limits the wearer's motion, as remarked by [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan]] [[Kelly-087]]. | Unfortunately, the suit's general complexity leads to complications.
