 This zombie was clearly a soldier before. Its tattered armor gives it strong defense, and it is much more physically fit than most zombies. 

This creature is a human sized zombie. It's an extremely competent fighter with very high hit points. It's slower than you, clumsy, has moderate armor against bashing weapons and very high armor against cutting ones (that includes bullets). Its special ability allows it to bite you, and sometimes bite you nastily, every 5 turns.

It has extremely high morale and it's totally aggressive. Being a zombie, it's afraid of nothing in particular, and can be angered by nothing in particular.

It can see, can hear noises, is able to smell characters, is warm blooded (it appears in infrared), can bash destroyable objects in its way (like doors), is poisonous to eat (produces tainted meat when butchered), its attacks can make you bleed, doesn't breathe (it's not affected by smoke, toxic gases, drowning, etc), has a reduced vision range (30 tiles less than normal), resuscitates after a few hours (unless its corpse is either smashed to a pulp or butchered), and nothing else.

Being made of flesh, it's vulnerable to nothing in particular.

When it dies, it drops the clothing and gear it was wearing (unless it's a revived one).


Notes

Usually found around military outposts and FEMA camps. Slightly faster and much tougher than normal zombies, zombie soldiers are a formidable enemy. Avoid them until you have a way to defeat their high armor. (A combat knife or machete should help, provided you've the skill to use them well.)

Zombie soldiers are known to have a chance to drop military grade loot (ammunition, fire arms, military grade tools/electronics, military grade armor, etc). Fortune to you if you come across it when you have proper means to kill it.
