The airwire headset is a piece of apparel added by the Biotech DLC.
Acquisition
Airwire headsets can be crafted at a Machining table once the Basic mechtech research project has been completed. They require 50 Steel, 4 Components, 2,100 ticks (35 secs) of work, and a Crafting skill of 4.
Also, it begins equipped on pawns in The Mechanitor scenario.
Summary
The airwire headset increases a mechanitor's bandwidth by +3.
Does not count as clothing for nudity.
Analysis
An airwire headset equates to 3 more militors or general labor mechs, in exchange for the protection from a simple helmet or other headgear. Somewhat useful, especially if your mechanitor does not participate in direct combat.
Once Standard Mechtech is obtained, then the array headset gives 3 more bandwidth and only costs 4 components more to create.
