I'm embarrassed to have taken so long in between updates. Selling a house and moving into an apartment shouldn't have occupied that much time! Better late than never, I suppose!

So, assuming I'm not misreading this (which I might be) ... her uniform has a built in feature that her partner knows about, and can possibly even remotely activate that Isla herself, whom is wearing it, wasn't made aware of and is not already using herself, in spite of it being useful to her survival?
Seems like a SEVERE breakdown of communication for a strike/recon team with off-the-books military backing. That's the sort of thing you train with and sort out BEFORE a mission like this, typically.
Or perhaps this is an instance of the manga/anime trope "THAT technique", where they vaguely allude to a special move so powerful they dare not speak it's name until they use it, else tipping their hand to the enemy.
Parker did say it was a surprise "for your new friends". So hopefully IG does know about whatever-it-is, and the phrasing is just opsec while on a mission.

Only 4 thugs left. Isla Grace says to Parker, "If you have a surprise for my 'new friends', now is the time to show it!"

I don't think the feature that will be used is in her suite. I think her suite will protect her from what is about to happen.
