 The Federation military was made up of troopers who wore a black uniform, sometimes with silver trim, and helmets with masks to hide their faces.The Federation logo was prominently featured on the upper left side of the uniform.They were issued "paraguns", a kind of handheld gun, however, when fired, sparks and smoke would exit the barrel, suggesting it fired a kind of projectile, or possibly a small packet of plasma, although the gun's report sounded nothing like a conventional firearm.
