Here is the list of [[Ork]] [[List of armour|Armour]]. It is as varied as the rest of Ork technology and some items may defy categorisation, but most fall under one of listed categories:
===Shield===
'''Shield''' is a little more then a metal plate, strapped to Ork's arm, that allows him to block enemy's blows in close combat and shelter behind it when shot at. It is rarely used as most Orks would prefer to carry one more weapon into combat, rather then bother about their protection.{{Fn|2a}}
===Studded Armour===
'''Studded Armour''' is made of tough [[Squig]] skin stidded with nuts and bolts and occasional metal plates. It is commonly worn by all Ork Boys, because it looks hard and offers some protection, expecially against primitive weapons, such as spears or arrows.{{Fn|2a}}
===Flak Armour===
'''Flak Armour''' is basically a heavier version of Studded Armour, made with several layers of Squig skin and nore metal plates to make it more resistant to incoming damage.{{Fn|2a}}

==='Eavy Armour===
''See main article: [['Eavy armour]]''<br>
''''Eavy Armour''' is made up of several metal plates, often actually riveted to the [[Ork]]. The solid plates give good protection against incoming damage but it is cumbersome to wear.{{Fn|1a}}{{Fn|2a}}
[[File:Mega Armour.jpg|thumb|300 pix|Ork in '''Mega Armour'''{{Fn|1a}}]]
===Mega Armour===
''See main article: [[Mega Armour]]''<br>
'''Mega armour''' is a suit of massively thick and heavy armour over a powered exoskeleton, that gives its wearer great resilence and incorporates [[Power Claw]] and [[Kombi-Weapon]] or twin-linked [[Shoota]], but slows him down because of its weight.{{Fn|1b}}
