i actually prefer the BBC article on it
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/2407807.stm
this unit could has great potential use for defense! in the future we may not have to fear intercontinental rockets, they'd be zapped in mid air.

gotta love the US/Israeli military alliance... some really technological stuff have come out of it; night vision googles, the New F-15(E?) inner electronic workings, the preditor unmanned air-vehicle (originally produced by an israeli company bought out by Boeing)

man working on such technologies would be my dream job, human engineering at its peak.

yea, i've also heard that they're working on suits that would allow its wearer to do some crazy shit...like jump a lot higher, run much faster and for much longer amounts. It would also inject a special chemical into your vains which would in turn lower your heart rate, and lock it at a steady pace.

thanks for the BBC article...much more informative

ya, wired magazine had an article about that a few months ago...
i remember hearing MIT was heavy in that research. also about how the suits will have GPS so commanders behind the scenes can track every single soldier throughout the battle on a huge computer screen dipicting the battlegroung, and they'd have real time communications with each one. talk about being on top of the game, man you would be changing tactics before the other guy knew what hit him

lol, exactly its gonna be more and more like Command & Conquer...the commander will be able to order his men around via the screen...send re-enforcements/medics within seconds... battle tactics will really change within this century.

I wish I could find the article about that, cause there was many more interesting things they talked about.

hey so game wizards who've mastered starcraft will have a job with the pentagon. all those years mastering the joystick will not be a total waste after all.

that, hands down, would be my dream job. Although I'd be a ruthless commander...i'd lose so many men cuz i wouldn't give a damn...even if some of them were badly injured, then i'd order one to shoot that injured one so he wouldn't slow down the rest

it's already happening.
i read in the paper today, or yesterday, that an unmanned airplane dropped a bomb on a leading taliban member responsible for the u.s.s. cole and a french ship incidents.
some guy sitting in front of a monitor holding a joystick controlled a plane, and killed someone else thousands of miles away.

scary thought.

computers don't kill people. people kill people.

That is to say they didn't really change last century? Keep in mind that for the first 15 years of last century, cavalry was still thought to be an army's most potent weapon....

Battle tactics change every century. This just looks cool as fuck to me. And I saw a special on those suits and read about them in Wired. There is so much cool shit going on in the feild of warfare, I wish I knew all of the advances that are being kept hidden. God, Id love to see some of those files

The funny thing is, that's all it is to the ******s at the top.
A game!

You think politicians give a shit about anything? Polotics is the ultimate game in the world! fucking fun to play too.

Only idealistic idiots are in it for "helping mankind" and all that crap.

we are closer and closer to that age where wars will be fought by robots in space (or at least on top of a very tall mountain). And it is clear what the job of our soliders will be then........






To build and maintain those robots

/me just made a Simpsons reference
