Though fatigues provide very little actual protection, they can be covered with ballistic armor plating, such as the [[M52B body armor]], often complemented by various armor sections in the legs, shoulders and forearms.

Fatigues are worn on missions where the added protection of heavier armor is a disadvantage, such as difficult terrain or for stealth missions. The clatter of armor may alert previously oblivious enemies to their approach, and the weight and bulkiness of the armor may inhibit the wearer's combat performance. | Fatigues are worn on missions where the added protection of heavier armor is a disadvantage, such as difficult terrain or for stealth missions.
