So while wearing it, you become super man. Hrm, does the SABR suit have any guns I’m wondering… lasers, energy blasters, its own high calibur machine guns… might be useless against the SABR unit, but those items have their own tactical usage in a fight against just about anyone who isn’t invulnerable to bullets.
Don’t be silly, of course he has a kill switch. On the other hand he didn’t go to all the trouble of arranging for Miss Kennedy to acquire the SABR in order to demonstrate that quality can beat quantity just to turn it off when its getting good.
Maybe, if you subscribe to the “Keng is in the know” theory. Me, not so much. Besides, this really reflects badly on his company, that a high end military project just walked out like it had no security at all. If it is discovered that he had a kill-switch and let Ms. Kennedy run free, Keng’s arrested for collusion (possibly treason), his company gets any & all extant contracts yanked, and the government will never give him or his company another chance. And he’ll lose the SABR outright.
Aikido is a wonderful discipline which, when properly applied, allows a weaker practitioner to use a stronger opponent’s strength against them (within limits). Ditching Keng will require much more significant (& metaphorical) Aikido, however.
“Merging the user and the hardware as if they were one.” Huh. How does the UN-merging process go?
It occurs to me that if she can’t be disconnected from the suit (see above) or doesn’t want to (e.g. she’s paraplegic and the suit allows her to walk), then the suit’s cancellation just might give her a good reason for her grievance (though she’s still making herself an A-Class villain).

Here’s hoping Mr. Keng has a kill switch for the SABR… Yeah,… Didn’t think so.

I’m curious to see what Miss Melee can do against the SABR suit. And how is she going to ditch Keng?
By punching it harder than bullets, of course. It’s bullet-proof, not fist proof

Realistically? Not much. When your opponent has steel-hard exoskeleton, enchanted strength and who knows what else.
But of course this armor has mayor, mayor gaps for just this purpose.
I’d say the real monster is the one who armed an angry young woman with a walking tank and turned her loose to take the fall….
But that’s just me.

Mind you, the first thing I thought of when reading SABR was,
Synergetic Air-Breathing Rocket Engine. (SABRE space engine)
