This suit appeared in early Dead Space 3 trailers and art, but was apparently cut from the game.When buying this suit while wearing the Elite Vintage Suit, the cost is 42,499 credits, instead of 42,500, which is 15% less than the original 50,000.This makes the cost in Credits make sense.

After taking the large yellow elevator up and defeating the large Necromorph group, instead of exiting the elevator, turn around and you should see the Schematic in front of you just beyond your normal reach. The Elite Advanced Suit will be found near the end of your second playthrough of Chapter 11.
