Battlesuit (and similar skills) would probably work better as a Perk - without it, you suffer -4 or so to all DX-based skills, with it you don't suffer a penalty. Most fiction with battlesuits, mecha, and so forth either ignore the issue of familiarity entirely or have the character take a bit of time to learn how to do it, at which point he's just as good in the suit as out. NBC suit skill and the like may be realistic as skills, but for gaming purposes a Perk to have familiarity is probably good enough.

Heck, in many cinematic settings Gesture can get up to Accented or even Fluent, essentially being some sort of military sign language.
