Dark Armor has been designed with a black color scheme. Each component of the armor shares the same matte application of black.

This Dark Armor has been fitted with various zero-g/vacuum seals complete with helmet scrubbers, allowing the user the ability to operate in zero-g environments and the vacuum of space while providing them with a limited supply of breathable air.

The helmet of this Dark Armor has been fitted with a Multi-Frequency Target Acquisition System (MFTAS), allowing the user to track and scan for multiple enemy targets. The MFTAS can calculate the outcomes of various tactics in a compressed time via computer models. Telemetry data including atmospheric conditions, the user's ammo count, unit member distance and individual ID tags, firing solutions, and tactical information is displayed around the peripheral of the user's field range for ease of use while keeping the center view unobstructed.

A basic self-repair system has been integrated into this Dark Armor, slightly reducing the amount of time spent on Dark Armor's maintenance by allowing the armor to passively repair minor damage over a long duration of time.

A slave system has been installed in Dark Armor, allowing this Dark Armor to call a starship that has been equipped with a slaving system to the location of the wearer.

Dark Armor has been constructed with a reinforced exterior and fitted with seals to allow the wearer of the Dark Armor to safely pass through Class III and IV atmospheres from orbit, with slight resistance to electrical and ion storms.
