Battle suit (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

action

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'battle' is the first definition.
(military action)

'suit' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for action that I've seen before include "Thing done; armed conflict" , "Order to start shooting" , "skirmish" , "Court case" , "Battle (in the law courts?)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Guardian.
