Two complete, new Orlan suits, brought up by Progress. This is in
addition to the suit that was used on the spacewalk that didn't have
any problems. Therefore, they have three Orlan suits, in addition to
any US EMU's in the US airlock.

Other than a quick look, it appears no detailed damage search was done. The
fault with the suit appeared to be a kinked piece of tubing in the water
cooling system from what I can gather. So anyone know when the laser
reflectors etc will be sorted?
