Earth's technology had created thermal weapons.
To prevent fatal injuries in battle, manufacturers had also developed "shields."
Various types of bulletproof equipment.
Such as bulletproof helmets, bulletproof vests, and so on.
However, those former individual combat protective devices.
Had become a complete joke after Electromagnetic Energy Weapons emerged.
Forget withstanding attacks from energy weapons.
They were not even very effective at defending against ordinary sharp or blunt weapons.
To that end, Earth's scientists had tailored their efforts to the characteristics of the new weapons and equipment.
They researched and manufactured more powerful protective gear.
As well as some auxiliary equipment.
Such as Powered Exoskeletons.
Such as individual combat protective suits.
These combat equipment sets could not only provide soldiers with powerful assistance.
Helping them increase their carrying capacity while conserving as much strength and stamina as possible.
Achieving the effect of using a small force to move a great weight.
At the same time, they gave every soldier basic defensive capabilities for survival.
For example, the White-Headed Sam Empire Shelter's latest generation of standard-issue individual protective Combat Suits.
They could easily withstand damage from conventional cold weapons such as blades, spears, clubs, and staves.
Ordinary cold weapons were basically useless against such protective equipment.
Even when facing attacks from thermal weapons.
Such as fifth-generation or earlier Electromagnetic Energy Cannons and Gatling Cannons.
They still could not inflict fatal injuries upon the soldiers.
Yet this was already the limit of Earth's technology.
Although they had previously acquired some more advanced technologies from Mo Yue.
Earth lacked the relevant material resources.
They had no way to create the materials needed to bring out the true power of those higher-level equipment sets and weapons.
As a result, everyone was still using relatively outdated individual combat protective equipment.
It could be said that throughout
