Overview

In-game description
A hazmat suit made from radiation resistant rubber.

Night fights against scientists who spot you first: that is where this outfit belongs. NVGM most likely stands for a night-vision mask, and the suit probably dresses the NPCs guarding dark places such as the Missile Silo. The row confirms neither.

What it does show is the usual NPC pattern: the filler recipe of the plain scientist suit, no workbench, no research cost, no durability, and the hazmat suit's game text. It will never appear in your crafting menu.

Want their edge for yourself? Research night vision goggles and set aside ten HQM for them. Their own text adds that the batteries recharge at a Level 2 bench, and that they cannot be worn with a helmet.
