Logistics is a role.

Just SSJ.

then whats a plane ole medium frame? a role as well?

your not technically wrong, but within this context you are.

as any suit can fulfil any role. (however bad at it they may be they can still fill that role)

A medium frame is a suit. It has no definition other than "a medium-framed dropsuit."

The "logistics" in the title of the logistics suit is basically a descriptive of what the logistics suit does...which is logistics.

Your bringing remote explosives for deployment to the battlefield. You are combat-logistics.

int he real world logistics is a open ended catch all for "the **** that happens behind the curtain" aka how goods get from point A to point B

i know becuase ive worked in "logistics" for 5 years

and ill tell ya if you really want loading an unloading trailers to be a role in DUST514 then your welcome to make a petition in for that.

as for your logic, if "logistics" is a role because the suit is named that then "medium frame" is also a role

Every single one has more than one. Equipment in this game is meant to assist the team in some fashion. Logistics is maintenance, supplying, making sure ** gets to where it needs to be. You've worked the occupation for 5 years; you should know it's more than loading and unloading trailers. My logi-code.

I know that Dust 514 is a training simulator imposed by the government for the secret space-marine program, but lets pretend for a second that Dust 514 isn't an accurate depiction of real life. Your remote explosives can be used to blow up enemy equipment or multiple enemies, both of which are negatives to your team's efforts. This is obviously not true of all equipment since they can't blow things up. It IS true that all equipment can be used to help the team. Your demolitions fitting is valid. It is also logistics. If a killer-bee is using equipment, it can still be beneficial to the team. You'll notice that they, most popularly, put down small hives that produce a pheromone over a certain area that attracts all of the other insects on their side of the field. My logi-code.

OH, IF ONLY! If only we had a suit that could capitalize on these logistical abilities, perhaps by having extra equipment slots to utilize multiple pieces of this theoretical equipment. But what would we call them... My logi-code.

So you aren't transporting the equipment that gathers this information to the battlefield? My logi-code.

They transport materials/equipment on the battlefield. Possibly also a bonus to the commander role, when that is released. Dropping in turrets and other installation. And relaying overall battle info to squads. On that note, how much ISK do you think it'll be for a installation? I'd imagine it'd be more expensive then a vehicle without any additions, but cheaper overall since you only have to buy the installation. My logi-code.
