While infiltrating the Kan-Tang facility he was attacked by soldiers wearing Experimental X-7 and X-8 combat armors being developed there. To save himself he donned the untested X-10 suit. It granted the wearer speed and strength boosts picked by sensing neural bursts by using its internet lining. Basically if he thinks of an action the suit will do it for him. It also comes with an light refracting shield and several weapons, such as a telescoping sword, hand hooks for wall climbing and wrist mounted energy darts.
