Well, my assessment of the situation was based on this scene:



As far I can comprehend, it indicates they got both suits and the drives. Whether it was wise of HRL to send all of the ten or just most of them is another matter. Strategically it always makes sense to use clear superiority in numbers and strength. Not only it makes the victory more sure but it can also reduce the chances of casualties. And it's not like after this one interception mission they wouldn't magically anymore have the possibility to take one unit apart to study it. 30 minutes here or there isn't going to change anything when studying such a tremendous thing.
