Capabilities
The armor was powered by the collection of microwave emissions with its antennae. The armor could also use this as a form of ECM by distorting reception of other devices.
Mylar wings mimicked the flight pattern of beetles, while also serving as razor-sharp weapons. The wings deployed from a sheath-like compartment in the back of the armor. The armor could cruise along at speeds of roughly 60 mph. Reaching higher speeds was possible by directing more power to flight systems.
On-board cameras gave the wearer a full 360-degree field of view. It had a number of other communications and sensors. A proximity alarm could be set to trigger if certain individuals become close to its location. Jenkins often set it for Spider-Man and other heroes while committing crimes.
The armor augmented the wearer's strength to roughly 1 ton. Suction cups allowed the armor to grip almost any surface. The armor's alloy composition provided good protection to its wearer.
The armor's gloves were able to generate a tremendous amount of static electricity for use as a close range attack or blast called the 'electrobite'.
The armor's battle computer was able to track a target and attempt to predict its moves based upon data it had previously collected.
