Iron Manual Page 20 Variable Threat Response Battle Suit Mod XI-Mk I
When in-flight, I must remain fairly rigid throughout the dynamic flight regime, or that part of the time when the contours of my suit behave like aerodynamic surfaces. When at speeds in excess of 250 miles per hour, if I so much as wave “hello”, I can whip up 20 feet before my suit can correct.
This also means that my offensive capability is compromised during most of my flight time. I fly in a passive/defensive mode, that is, taking in my surroundings on various visual and electromagnetic frequencies. But I need to be able to enter offensive mode very quickly. So I generated this “cone of fire” diagram to enable me to see where my weak points were; where my chinks in the armor lie.
