Tovarish 0 Posted May 30, 2003 "and as you can see, the visor has been made with the tradition of the troops of another powerful empire in mind - the British Redcoats of old - in order to give the enemy a sporting chance in battle by completely ignoring the concept of low visibility" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FallenPaladin 0 Posted May 30, 2003 Looks quite stylish that armor, but I`m not a big fan of all that high-tech stuff. Most of it breaks too easy and it`s impossible to repair it on your own in the field. If I ever had the choice between an OICM e.g. or a more compact weapon with less high-tech in it, I`ll take the compact weapon. Most of the new stuff is just to bulky and it`s indeed almost impossible to hide somewhere with it. Lots of the future conflicts will be urban warfare, but most will still be fighting outdoors in the nature. Guess I`ll stick to my normal camo suit, bulletproof west and maybe a selfmade ghillie suit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-TU--33ker 0 Posted May 30, 2003 look at those shiny boots and helmet. the beginning of the clone army. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallenPaladin 0 Posted May 30, 2003 Yes, but seriously, I often get the impression that lots of new army equipment has to look cool or fashioned. What a crap!! [gayvoice]"Ooooopsy, but my OICW is cooler than yours!! And your bodyarmor, sweetheart, it looks just awful. That kind of design and those colors! I`d die if I had to wear something like that!!"[/gayvoice] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-TU--33ker 0 Posted May 30, 2003 very interresting gun. I would have expected a M4 with a laptop on top of it from the Americans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commander-598 0 Posted May 30, 2003 Laptop on a gun? probably. One of things that always made me laugh at the Landwarrior was that its 2000+ and the thing has a camera thingy from the '80s. Neat... The visor looks like it gives information and by the looks of that weapon(No sights), a crosshair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Assault (CAN) 1 Posted June 5, 2003 I wonder how much taxpayer money the U.S. Military wastes on the development of shit they will never use. Does anyone remember that article in Popular science a few years back in which the U.S. Army's concept of a soldier in 2012 would be? They had this army guy dressed in black with what looked like a motorcycle helmet, and a wrist mounted gun/rocket launcher, complete with a cooling system in the suit. I also remember watching CNN and a special they had on futuristic army kit, which included a robot 'mule' which could wheel around a soldiers kit instead of having him carry a rucksack. I would have loved to see someone try and use that in Afghanistan. Friggin' morons. Who recruits these R&D guys anyway? The U.S. military is the strongest in the world, yet some guys in it feel the need to make it stronger and stronger. Some people just baffle me. Oh well.

BronzeEagle 2 Posted June 6, 2003 What's up with the jetpacks on the guy's back, did you see those? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallenPaladin 0 Posted June 7, 2003 I can remember jetpacks they used in shows some years ago. Do they want to introduce them to the armed forces now? Sounds kinda Battletech to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
