|
| rdfs:comment | - The Ground Infantry Combat Uniform, abbreviated GICU, is the current battledress uniform of the United Nations Space Command Defence Force. It was first adopted exclusively by the UNSC Army in 2170 as a replacement for the older Army Combat/Working Uniform (ACWU), which had served as the primary battledress of the Army for the entirety of the Interplanetary War. Positive reception of the uniform from attached airmen, sailors, and marines, however, coupled with the deep economic impacts of the Human Civil War and subsequent Human-Covenant War, eventually led to the universal adoption of the GICU by the UNSC Defence Force as its standard inter-service combat uniform in 2535.

| abstract | - The Ground Infantry Combat Uniform, abbreviated GICU, is the current battledress uniform of the United Nations Space Command Defence Force. It was first adopted exclusively by the UNSC Army in 2170 as a replacement for the older Army Combat/Working Uniform (ACWU), which had served as the primary battledress of the Army for the entirety of the Interplanetary War.

The unified Ground Infantry Combat Kit was subsequently devised in 2536 (before which the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Air Force utilised different equipment), and standardised the combat utilities of infantry and other combat personnel from all branches of UNSC service. The full kit includes load bearing equipment and modular armour components, and has been continuously improved since introduction with the development of new materials and continuous combat testing.
