General Overview

Vegeta suggests that Kuririn and Son Gohan wear the armor meant for the people of the planet Litt

Following the defeat of Ginyu, and with Son Goku placed in a rejuvenation chamber, Vegeta provides Kuririn and Son Gohan with battle jackets from Freeza's ship. He states that these are smaller-sized versions made for the people of Planet Litt.

In filler material within Dragon Ball Z television series episode 110, Vegeta continues his search for Son Goku out in space. Having arrived on a planet that he believes "Kakarrot" has recently been on, Vegeta slaughters an entire army consisting of what appears to be the same race of beings. The sole remaining member of the race — a beak-faced, brown-ish alien wearing armor akin to Freeza's forces as well as an arm blaster — refers to his group as "Littians" (リット星人 ritto-seijin).

Name

The "RIT Armor" in Dragon Ball Z: Sagas is likely the same armor referenced for the "Litt" people in the original series

The planet's name of "Litt" (リット ritto) may be a play on the Japanese approximation of the English word "little" (リトル ritoru), particularly alongside Vegeta's description of the specific armor in question being smaller. Viz's English translation of the Dragon Ball manga adapts this as "the planet Lilliput" referencing the nation of the same name from the 1726 novel Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift, which features inhabitants one-twelfth the size of a standard human being.

In the 2004 western-developed video game Dragon Ball Z: Sagas, certain characters (Son Goku, Son Gohan, Vegeta, and Future Trunks) can be equipped with "RIT Armor" (with shoulder pads) and "RIT Armor Variant" (without shoulder pads) options. This armor matches that provided to Son Gohan and Kuririn in chapter 291 and later worn by these same characters in the series. The name "RIT" is therefore likely an alternate transliteration of the original リット (ritto), with the game's developers and writers perhaps working in a vacuum without knowledge of prior adaptations/spellings/changes.
