Emergancy and Catfish have it.

Post by: Clickbeetle on August 15, 2009, 08:06:50 PM: Emergency doesn't have DSS as of the 1.2 patch. Just regular steel. They put slot decals on the front in order to make it realistic (as if the flippers don't already pass through the ram plates) and apparently they reset the armor in the process.
