Another thing to think of with PA is that they have relativly short
endurance (12 hours for ESU PA to 36 hours for NAC PA). After that time,
they must recharge, change filters, restore food stocks (protien paste,
yum!), dispose of waste, (humans sleep), etc. I would expect this
maintenance time is the most dangerous for PA. Prime time for special
ops
strikes from the opponents.

I think that someone on the list had described (last year?) a scenario
where
PA were recharging and were attacked (by GMS/P vs the recharge vehicle?)
and
had to escape with only personal weapons.
