On another note, read the latter parts of my <Ren> fic, and you'll note that I mentioned smoke and possible gas grenades. I haven't seen them actually use the IS underwater or a true vacuum, so I'm not sure if that means the pilots still have to breathe normal air--but I am assumig they have to, as the shield only protects them from conventional/beam weapons, not smoke, tear gas, disease, etc. other agents.

White Phosphorus would be particularly nasty, htough. To Cruel and unusal levels.
