Overview

A Cooling Suit is among the most lightweight comfortable piece of cooling gear worn by MechWarriors. The suit is constructed from a breathable body-stocking interwoven with thousands of tiny flexible cooling lines. A compact coolant pump worn on the belt draws power from the BattleMech in order to circulate the coolant and protect the wearer from the dangerous build-up of heat in their cockpit.[1]

Such suits were once standard issue in the days of the Star League but with its collapse and the onset of the Succession Wars they became lostech. Meanwhile the Clans never lost their capacity to produce cooling suits, and with the spread of technology cooling suits are slowly becoming more common within the Inner Sphere.[1]
