K-9 Harness: Tactical Body Armor (and Backpack) adds a new modular body armor with brand new meshes & textures for Dogmeat, designed after modern-day Military and Police K-9 Unit harnesses. Featuring craftable side pouches, backpack, ballistic weave, faction patches, and various colors and patterns, each component can be added, removed, or customized at the standard Armor Workbench, giving you a huge variety of options.

Side pouches, and a backpack can be added to give Dogmeat extra carrying capacity. For extra protection, Ballstic Weave can also be added.

• 8 colors/ patterns currently available: Olive Drab, Black Tactical, Police Blue, Forest Camo, Desert Camo, Sky Camo, Urban Camo, and Winter Grey.

• Harness and pouches can be colored separately for many color combos!

• 12 patch sets can be added to the side panels, featuring all vanilla factions, plus U. S. Army, K-9 Police, NCR, Reilly’s Rangers, and Vault-Tec

• Base vest has an armor rating of 30, with 15 extra damage resistance, but Ballstic Weave can be added for extra protection

• Side pouches and backpack can be added/stacked to give Dogmeat +40 or +80 carryweight, respectively.

• Compatible with everything, as it’s a simple armor like the vanilla Dog armors, nor does it edit leveled lists or other vanilla records.

Please note, in this 1. 0 version, the bags share the same area as the patches, so adding side pouches will make the patches unable to be seen. An upcoming update will add more areas to the vest for patches, for even more customization.
