| I was supposed to test this thing but of course got replaced by a senior NCO who is not even going to deploy. Still pretty amazing stuff. Now if only they could have a separate power source we should be good. Personally I would love an exoskeleton like the Armor for halo, but that is just me  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nhj3Z9o6t0g&feature=related

If you follow the link, the exoskeleton is supposed to help us with tasks that where too tiring already, we can lift a load of 150lb with no problems or carry it while running, allow the soldier to break through stuff or example being able to do 2 man lift on their own. The exoskeleton is supposed to enhance performance and protect us from enemy fire, but since it has no portable power source or ventilation I dont see it coming any time soon. Plus I am sure the manufacturer has not accounted for the fact that the enemy my see it as a bigger threat and get bigger toys to take us down | |
