BP can't exactly hack Starktech.
Its missiles can't really be considered "standard", remember what one of those did to She-Hulk?
Then you have repulsors and the strength enhancement which rocked Thor's world, when Loki used the armor/Rhodey against him.

WM's problem is that he doesn't receive upgrades/modifications/new suits as often as Stark does, who keeps the best toys for himself.
But that's also a good thing - sort of - he fluctuates less this way.
Unlike Stark, who can one day humble Surfer or Thor... only to get jobbed to the z-list versions of Pyro, Iceman and Hydroman on another day.

The Thanos missiles were prep, iirc - they knew he was coming thanks to the Inhuman visions.
But yeah, I guess the rest of his arsenal just doesn't impress compared to Stark.
Rhodes is a black man looking for a fight, not a prep guy.
Although it sure is conceivable... with Blue Marvel and T'Challa on the good guys team.
It's still a high quality Iron Man armor, originating from the time of Stark's best physical feats.
Definitely not a "lulz, I'm gonna buy some malfunctioning war arsenal from a fake Justin Hammer [Junior]" suit.

WM's biggest advantage here = our forum rules - there is nothing stopping him from staying in the air and bombarding the area.
