That Crap loos like Crap. They should try making it look like an Ironman suit. And if they can make it, I'll sign my body over for their next experiment, a bionic body. Super strength, speed, agility, intelligence, sight, hearing, smelling, stamina, etc. I wouldn't mind being Captain America w/ an Ironman Suit. An awesome combination. If you want the best, you must make the best. I learned that in the Marines. They don't just make Marines or men, they make machines too.

People are saying, Oh this is a prototype, dont be so hard on it and such… But dear lord, if it took 6 yaers to make that garbage then I shudder to think about the time it will take those idiots to make something worth a damn. My 70 year old grandfather and I made a suit in a month that could tip over a car, was bullet, fire, water proof, and obviously reacted to you movement. They are making a big deal about being able to walk, and Oh YAY, it moves when you do! Christ, me and pop used valves and electronic sensors from cars to make ours. And it didn't cost anything. It was heavy ya, sheet metal and iron, hydraulics and such, but imagine if we had advanced materials? I dunno, I guess I'm saying that they are not trying very hard, or beating around the bush on purpose.

I agree, i too am a soldier..well i just returned home from training camp (brutal place) but i was thinking the same thing and i am anxious to see videos for a more compact front line suit, the possibilities would be tripled in terms of protection, strength, and combat attributes…truly amazing.

Tony your comment makes a valid point however what you fail to realize is that in any military branch the goods and new tech always goes to the smaller more capable units. I see this being implemented to say a member of a SOCOM or Force Recon Unit to serve its purpose for maybe a heavy weapons or an advanced systems tech. I would imagine Uncle Sam arming the entire fleet with these either but I could definitely see the advantages of having one or two in a platoon.
