i agree but every time I bring this up too many try to deny it. Impulse was perfectly built to deal with Kira's style of fighting. Parts can be replaced as many times as needed so long as Kira doesn't suddenly decide to kill the pilot. So it's a mobile suit that can keep going and whittle away at the freedom a little at a time so long as supplies last. Shinn is a skilled pilot in his own right but without the impulse he would be shit against Kira. Giving Destiny to Shinn right after Kira is gone shows that for Durandal the Impulse served it's purpose with the only one truly capable of doing anything to it out of the way. Otherwise why not give Destiny to Shinn before the fight and give him a mobile suit that could hold it's own against the Freedom?
