"Lt. Staten, Jim Spartan; launching!"

The electromagnetic catapult sprang to life, rocketing her mobile suit forward and out of the ship. The force was sufficient to push her back against her seat, a silent reminder to take this seriously. She'd had simulated training for zero-g combat, but that didn't change the fact that this was new. Might even be a little disorienting, but Kat'd adjust quick. She had to set an example.

The Lieutenant didn't waste time either; the instant she was clear of the hatch her Spartan was dispersing Minovsky particles, creating a dense area where traditional sensors didn't work. Even her own IR radar was less precise, but a whole hell of a lot more specific than anything else. And the old Mk. I eyeball was still working perfectly fine. Said eyes narrowed as soon as she got a look at the enemy, directing her Jim to bring its minigun to bear.

"I count two Zakus, two Rick Doms, a Gelgoog, a Gyan, and a Zaku Cannon. Never seen the Gyan variant, but it looks quick." A grin spread across her face while she moved her shield to guard the Spartan's torso, opening the throttle wide and sending the machine rocketing forward already spraying fire at the Gelgoog in the lead.

"Engaging the Gelgoog! Let's see how well he dances."
