The Bow Armor (Japanese: ボウアーマー Bow Armor) is a basic armored class debuting in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. It is one of four weapon-specific variations of the Knight, specialising in the use of bows, and appears only in Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776; it is the only armor variant to not reappear in Radiant Dawn. It is statistically identical to its counterparts, the Armored Lance, Armored Axe and Armored Sword.

The Bow Armor can class change to General, though as there are no playable Bow Armors, this cannot be seen in legitimate gameplay.
