An incredible improvement over past suits, the MC-3 was a defining moment in the pressing factor suit configuration, utilizing a blend of the then-regular "capstan" framework, and an imaginative full-middle bladder around the imperative organs, stretching out from the shoulders to the center of the thigh. In case of depressurization, the suit would expand, securing the pilot's body against the growth brought about by the low pneumatic force at high heights. The raised cylinders on the furthest points would pull against the texture, guaranteeing a tight fit when compressed.
