done, you need to explain more about this thermal body armour, do you mean thermo-plastic or is it to do with heat gain or loss?

Also what type of body armour is it, is it leg / torso (spine,chest, arm, shoulder?)

But is there any need for thermal body armour?
I am always hot enough wearing normal armour.

You don't need to sign up at the end.

Sorry for not making it clear but It's basicly an alternative to big bulky plastic armour, and its for torso, spine, shoulders and arms.

Some people have asked for an explanation about what "thermal body armour" is:

It's basicly an alternative to big, bulky, plastic armour. In response to how hot it would be, - It would be "breathable" The reason that it is thermal, is for a tight fit so it doesn't move around.

Hope that clears things up, Any more questions feel free to ask.

Forcefield armour is not hard plastic but layers of composite foams, breathable and moulds to body with body heat output
