Militech has used this Landmate design to create their NAVY SEAL specific "Catfish" ACPA. While in appearance it is short, fat, and ugly it is the most succesfull of all conventional underwater suits of powered armor in the world. It is almost as effective on land as it is at sea. The suit is mostly used for scuttling enemy ships and subs, and it is extremely effective at neutralizing enemy divers. In fact the Catfish has a very nasty trick when it comes to enemey divers, it uses bom wire obstacles to ensare the enemy. The wires are virtually invisible underwater and will entangle a diver in moments, if the diver is not freed he will most likely drown as he slowly sinks to the bottom and his air supply runs out. The Catfish is also the testbed for the new Whalesong sonar baffling system. The Whale song takes up 1/2 space and emits recorded whale songs to foil an enemy, the fat subby shape of the Catfish resembles a killer whales sonar signature on most sonar screens allowing it to get right up to a sub and plant explosives. The Catfish is also notable as the only Militech suit that uses Landmate technology. Apparently they got it into production before Arasaka or Guges (the joint patent holders) could intervene.
