Troopers sport olive-drab fatigues, with brown-gray armor plating. The main components of the armor include an armored vest, a helmet and large shoulder pauldrons. The chest armor also has an extension to provide protection to the groin. The shins are not armored like in the [[UNSC Marine Corps Battle Dress Uniform|Marine BDU]], with only dust-gray combat boots and black kneepads on the lower leg. The thighs have attachment rigs for equipment much like in the other versions. On the waist is a utility belt used for storing equipment.
