Surface Survival Suit

Today I consulted with a fellow commander on what suit they'd recommend for survivability on the surface of a planet in a hostile place such as HIP 22460. Commanders finding themselves deprived of ship and then SRV being a commonplace thing there now. To maximise the survival endurance while waiting for rescue out of the hot LZ my friend advised an Artemis with Increased Battery Capacity and Increased air reserves. That needs G3. However, if I took it to G5, which is rare for an Artemis, I could add increased sprint duration and improved jump assist. Both these would be to aid getting to that ship as fast as possible, since the rescuer's survival on the surface can be measured in seconds.I'd recently seen a G3 Artemis with increased air reserves at Lorrah Dock in the G 224-46 system. Luckily for me, it was still there when I went back to get it. I now have two G3 Artemis suits, one with increased battery and one with increased air. My acquisition of materials will determine which one I progress to my G5 Planetary Survival Suit.
