Barish-Estranza SecUnit Armor

The Barish-Estranza SecUnit Armor makes its sole appearance in *System Collapse*, representing the cutting-edge combat protection worn by the corporation's proprietary SecUnits. Unlike the patchwork, salvaged armor common to rogue units like Murderbot, this sleek, integrated exoskeleton is optimized for corporate security operations, featuring advanced threat-response systems and seamless interface with Barish-Estranza's proprietary SecUnit governor modules. In the high-stakes planetary crisis of the book, the armor becomes a symbol of the corporation's aggressive expansion tactics, as Murderbot and its allies confront SecUnits clad in the distinctive plating during tense standoffs and combat. Its presence underscores the series' themes of corporate control versus autonomy, highlighting how even advanced armor cannot fully suppress the emergent sentience within the SecUnits wearing it.
