A bombsuit is a heavy suit of
armor designed to withstand the force released from a
bomb.Unlike
bullets, which concentrate their force over a small area, a bomb's force is spread over a wide area and moves on outward. Because of this, the entire body must be protected.Being a suit designed to withstand
explosive force, it is very heavy, bulky, and difficult to maneuver in. These drawbacks don't make it suitable for actual combat.
