General Combat and Utility Uniform

The General Combat and Utility Uniform, often abbreviated to GCUU, is the current standard uniform of the Federal Armed Forces of the Commonwealth of Centaurus, and is also in use by several Planetary Defence Forces, other national militaries, and paramilitary and mercenary organisations. It was introduced as part of the Personal Armour and Defence System (PADS) in 2325, replacing the previous Tactical Battle Dress.

The most common variant, used by the Federal Marine Corps, features the woodland FEDPAT print, and is also reversible to a winter scheme in the same pattern. Other variants exist, but these tend to be found in the hands of special operations, PDFs, and foreign militaries. The uniform itself is made of a very light fabric to provide maximum comfort, but provides virtually no ballistic protection. It does, however, grant the wearer some protection against cuts or slashes.
