well, from what I see from this, you can't achieve that 15:1 with all of that alone, minus the electric reactive armor. Even if you go on the molecular scale, all of those modifications will not result in a 15:1 armor(well, maybe the molecular, but doing so would be expensive compared to what Yevata does, which is macroscopic scale polarization to make it not too expensive or hard to manufacture), and that's even against lasers, which those modifications of yours are supposed to effect. Really, the only thing causing the 15:1 would be the electric armor, which, without massive secondary capacitor storage or a high powered reactor which recharges the capacitors in seconds, will only work once every few minutes. And as shown by IRL and RP, you can't rely on something like that all the time. And actually, I see many avenues of improvement. You forget, making the armor stronger in a certain direction isn't the only way to increase armor effective thickness...
