^ unless your a test pilot willing to test flight equipment that weighs a ton and has no backup if something goes wrong then yes I can use the Iron man idea through a contract as long as i dont die in the process

Which, when looked in that light, makes sense that survival supplies are so scanty: pilots generally don't live long enough to need them. Law of averages mean sooner or later BETA are gonna come swimming to your island to say hello and invite you to dinner.

TSFs have a system called the Type 87 Exoskeleton, which is actually the pilot seat, ejected after the TSF is deemed useless. Its used for quick escapes far away from the main battle. However, normally the TSFs take too much damage or are surrounded by BETA by the time they should eject, that the system is rarely used.
That said, a crow bar, a shotgun, and a pistol with at least one bullet serves as sufficient supplies if I have to bail out in an urban area. Crow-chan for the damn cockpit when it gets stuck, shotgun for any running warrior class or stealthing soldier class, and the pistol for me. Food and Water as supplied by reinforced suit for 72 hours is enough for me.

That's okay. There's the TSF, JIVES, and war with the Beta. The battle will be as real as it can get if you like action/fps games. Only this time, there is no save point or respawn option. It'll be exciting, I'm sure of it. Since I live in the states, I'll end up in a Super Hornet which is fine, but preferably, I want a Typhoon since Takemi is out of my league. My lucky best friend however will end up in one... |

I wonder if BETAs are edible. Should be, they eat humans and mostly everything, so they must taste like pork probably. In a sense, after a long battle there should be enough food lying around to feed a town for weeks.
"Waiter! Some fried crispy bbq sauce BETA legs please, with some fries and some soda ASAP! Am starving!" NOMNOMNOMNOM |

Muscle fiber of a humongous alien beast that probably weigh hundreds of ton and also capable of moving up to 140kmph is going to be ridiculously tough to eat,even if it's edible. |

For testing purposes, you could prepare a meal of them to be served to death row inmates before green-lighting BETA meat for general consumption. |

http://muvluv.wikia.com/wiki/Fortified_Orange_Juice The Muv Luv world has food processors which are factories churning out artificial protein, since foodstock cannot be grown naturally where the BETA have been. It is not stated where the source of the raw protein comes from. The one time in The Day After that the Japanese empire managed to build a Food Processor Plant which created good tasting food, a war was fought over it... That's how shit the world is.

"- By the way, Walter, you know that joke?- Irisdine spoke in a level tone, as if she hadn't noticed the enemy at all and was asking about the weather.
- Which one? - Someone sends a question to the Berlin radio: are the BETA edible at all? - ...And? - They answer: of course not. Unless you're British. Several muffled laughs could be heard in the comms. The dreadfulness of the rations distributed to the British army, stationed in the DDR under UN command, was legendary even among East German personnel, and Walter chuckled appreciatively: - Yes, and there's so many of them here... we should export them to the islanders, they'd probably thank us. - Right, - so first, let's turn those over there into paste." |
