Exoskeleton...super soldiers soon?

[Sogeking]

exoskeleton body suit. do want.

 

[Forged]

I want one of the cool looking ones they showed at the end.

 

[Metal Gear Flash]

they have a lot more work to do before its even practical as is...but still very interesting

 

[Sogeking]

it seems practical already, it'd help a LOT with logistic type jobs.

Halo in real life....It's only a matter of time

 

[Metal Gear Flash]

i'd never give up agility for super strength

 

[Sogeking]

yeah but agility doesn't mean squat if you wear urself out in the time super strength can do something...but in terms of muscles and all that, agility people > super strong people.

 

[Metal Gear Flash]

yeah.....if your doing something like moving heavy materials and ****, exoskelly = teh pwn, but SOLDIERS.... agility suits would make for way better "super soldiers"

 

[Sogeking]

i think its a logistics thing....but for soldiers...fully automated suits! come on!

Halo in real life....It's only a matter of time

Except that most fighting isn't against aliens but rather idealists. =\

 

[Metal Gear Flash]

they could just grow some elite black soldiers...all the agility/strength we'll need...plus no one will care if they die LOL

 

[Sogeking]

u mean asians?

 

[Ninja_Blue]

Why don't we somehow get our troops active camo/cloaking and some kind of detector jammer.

You don't need strength or agility when you're invisible.

Right, because you couldn't be killed if you had that suit.

 

[Wing Zero]

bah exoskeleton suits = crap/boring super soldiers imo

 

[Metal Gear Flash]

i wish the ninja would surface and take over the world

 

[Sogeking]

no, amazons please

 

[ChrisH36]

Well, the technology is getting there. It seems they still have a lot of bugs to work out before it's fully operational.

 

[Tw@]

Yeah we'll grow exoskelton trees

 

[Laharl]

Screw exoskeletons. I want a 100 tonne mech. I'd call it the Ares.
