Sergeant Delphine Angua Von Überwald from the Discworld adaption, Going Postal. She’s wearing the exact same armour as her Watchmen counterparts, with the exception of her badge being on a collar around her neck, because she’s a werewolf and it pays to advertise you’re still a Watchbeing when you’re about to rip a miscreants arm off.

In the books, it is mentioned she had her breastplate reworked, to “suggest there was something other than muscle under there”, which implies Watchwomen get given the exact same armour as everyone except the trolls.

I’m pretty sure the breastplate line was always intended to be a boobplate joke, as in Angua is so busty she needs one fitted. Especially since in the earlier books the Watch was issued with relatively random and ill-suiting uniforms (hence fat sergeant Colon is noted to wear a muscle cuirass).

It was a relief to see the mini series give her a regular breastplate.

That said, the character in the books in general is a stone-cold badass and the start of Ankh-Morpork’s City Watch becoming Discworld’s most diverse organization, both gender- and race-wise. Angua and her fellow watchwomen (especially Cheery Cheri Littlebottom, the breaker of dwarf gender taboo) deserve all the love from BABD.
