The military suit was a standard-issue type of medium armor that saw widespread use in the days of the Mandalorian Wars, Jedi Civil War and Dark Wars. While the suit was heavier and more restrictive than some of its counterparts, it was sturdy and afforded solid protection. For this reason, it was a popular choice of armor for many mercenaries, who found the trade-off tolerable. Brejik, the leader of the Black Vulkars, wore such a suit of armor when he was killed during a brief fight against Revan and Bastila Shan in the wake of the Tarisian Season Opener swoop race of 3956 BBY.
