Robot and Human Soldiers on FutureWeapons (Part 4 of 4)

[107nd]

Johnny 5 Alive!

[TACSIM1]

0:41 stretched HMMWV? lol

[SuperRip7]

Poor Mack. Once a proud Navy SEAL, now a Pentagon mouthpiece. He makes war or "counterinsurgency" seem like a mall experience. When this episode began, Future Combat Systems was thought to be successful as the buildup in the 1980s. Now its promises are not living up to expectation. Quipped with lame monologue emphasizing "coolness", he misleads his captive audience about the unpredictability of warfare. The secretary of defense who left in 2006 proved inept so that's why I hate this clip.

[venturafor2012]

too bad the idiot President Obama cancelled this :-( fucking idiot!!!

[lynx233]

And all this works till the first bump into enemy ECM(electronic countermeasures) specialist :) .

[MsCasper2010]

thiking wa can see claymor's laser, (cod)

[IgnaceR152]

6:45 pete doherty did research for this

[005Dresden]

so if the US can now see who their enemys and friendlies are, maybe they can stop shooting british soldiers by accident?

[pierceys234]

@005Dresden accident?

[billyhoplita]

lol if i play too much MW2 ill be SOoo Rdy join to the Army loool is the Same!!!

[DJMclovin25]

it like ghost recon 2 but now i want to see a ghost recon future soldiers type episode

[dirtydog1985]

even the future army of the usa agrees, 360 pwns ps3

[fuzzyhead562]

@dirtydog1985 agreed brother

[5687678]

That robot has to move and respond much faster. In order for it to be an effective tool. Now it's just IED detection and it can be taken out easily.

[gulllars]

@5687678 Just give the design job to a gamer/hacker with an engineering degree, and you'll have a nice little robot with agility, lots of scouting ability, and can take out targets with aimbot speed and accuracy if you flip the kill switch...

[TheWizardTrembyle]

@gulllars And it will probably have a bunch of useless hardware, be too difficult to mass produce, and cost a billion dollars. I'd give the job to someone who didn't learn everything he knows about war from a video game.

[gulllars]

@TheWizardTrembyle i didn't say unsupervised or without limitations :P

[DarthVantos]

LAME!

[20324758]

An EMP Strike will render the network useless leaving them blind and their vehicles out of action

[ViolentKisses87]

@20324758 Maybe but military specs for hardware are require most things to survive EMP. Some of the very light stuff like those heli drones i'm no so sure of but you'll just have to Google it

[20324758]

@ViolentKisses87 maybe, but is there any electronic device capable of resisting a EMP? i dont think so, the only thing that will resist an EMP will be the soldiers weapons

[aromsolrac01]

@20324758 In order to resist an EMP They have to increase spending on finding ways to use Biological Technology Lmao

[gulllars]

@aromsolrac01 or they can just proof the UAVs. Making it _resistant_ to EMP attacks can be done with a faraday cage in the chassis or around the voulnerable components. There have been EMP resistant electronic devices for years.

[gulllars]

@20324758 Making it _resistant_ to EMP attacks can be done with a faraday cage in the chassis or around the voulnerable components. There have been EMP resistant electronic devices for years.

[deathing]

@20324758 actually you can shield electrics quite easily, parallel earth fuses and faraday cages, but no one bothers with the added money and weight if its just jihadist with AK's. Besides, advanced EMPs blow out cities, so the downed drones will be the least of your problems. No light, no communications, no power, no traffic control.

[kancaz]

xbox controler .

[kancaz]

Modern warfare 2 LOL.

[stevenw97]

I guess video games really can help you prepare for war. haha.

[luvwrapper]

an xbox controller?

[zoq2]

Lol thy forgot to turn the xbox on ;)

[SaoMir1]

lol. xbox controller. there you have it, war is nothing but a video game.

bet they will using the wii controller soon

[cyanleopard]

If you think about it the xbox controller is something that every one from 18 to 35 is familiar with. These are vary early concept ideas, and still have a lot of work to be done.

[thumbs317]

fuck man.... skynet

[mufeez666]

@thumbs317 exactly!!

[freddee0]

hahahahah xbox lol nice controler

[GmanX101]

LOL Xbox controller. actually makes sense when you think about ti

[mike6522]

rofl 2:34 xbox controller

[heartless3]

"All seeing, all knowing warrior..."

WALL HACKERS!!!

[ToMmeHxD34]

I swear i saw an orange tip on the guns in one of the scenes ... o-o airsoft much..?

1:52

[Nomadanegra]

Ever heard about blanks?

[ToMmeHxD34]

o-o nah... sorry? Not my fault i dont know >.>

[tank1demon]

I hate to be pessamistic, but a well placed curbstomp will put any UGS out of commision for good...

[ptsdsdtprol]

Is the equipment worn by the soldiers shock, water and mud proof? would an er

rant round take it out?

what powers the equipment the Soldiers wear? batteries equal more weight

does carrying all that extra equipment mean that they cant carry as much ammo and water?

what happens if the system crashes an the boys on the ground have to do it the old fashioned way....

dont mean to sound cynical ... all intel is needed but theres a few what ifs

[cyanleopard]

Yes its shock, water, and mud proof. The power source is batteries. As of right now it weighs 10 lbs. As fare as stability of the net work, well why it still has a lot of work to be done it runs over the same backbone as the longbow system and is quite reliable. Over all at this time this kind of technology is slated to be deployed with mechanized units. In another 10 or so years this will be the future of warfare.

[long0800]

what?! at pimped out strech hummer

[RandomDirectors]

and play halo 3 on their free time.

2 in 1

[DungeonKing213]

Ahhhhhhhhhh, I want to know more about that new communications gear that the soldiers are now wearing.

[0mfg57fu]

play Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter

[DungeonKing213]

I have it, and the second one. But I want the actual details.

[TheArcticFALLOUT]

the limited adition gohst recon has a dvd that shows how the millitary is working on the same axact stuff from gohst recon

[quikLOSangeles420]

PS3 FUCK THE SHITBOX

[yannchambrier]

At 2:36 there is the exact controller for XBox 360.

Huh?

[tank1demon]

Improvision =]

[Beliserius1]

did u see the size of the humvee!??!

at 0:40

thats a Limo humvee!

[0mfg57fu]

its a transport humvee, its longer so it can fit more people in :/

[jackmcslay]

they should paint the drone sky blue instead. it would be much harder to see

[wowimatard]

true but if thej shoot att it thej reveal their postion and missing the drone...

[Shadowsniper1987]

WTF XD....a X-Box 360 controller for a army robot?? xD LOLOLOL

[djalikey8]

microsoft has put a shit load of time researching the best ergonomic design... no need to spend more and they're dirt cheap to replace! definately want to see more of this

[Finn001abd]

But at least give the controller some camo :P Bright white is just too shiny :)

[jackmcslay]

use the halo 3 edition controller then?

[jackmcslay]

I just hope they won't have to rely on the d-pad tho

[ajoqut]

If They Dont Make So Many Test, No Oil Crises

[ragman2008]

what if the enemy spots these and shoots them down

Waste of time isn't it??

Do something more imporved guyz

[FEARTTX]

Shoot them down with small arms? Please, by the time it's in full use, it'd have sorted the problems out, armor, EMP defense etc. Still, if it's shot down they'll know, that area has hostiles.. :3

[ender111222333]

From what i gather it is like More eyes on the Field. So if you shoot out one of there eyes, all you are accomplishing is showing them exactly where you are. My biggest worry would be EMP or anything else that can take down the network. they should never put themselves into a position where they NEED these eyes.

[Kingofeternity]

I agree regarding eyes on the field. I'm sure though that they are still trained with minimum equipment. I guess they figure, few enemies would have EMP's so no worries on losing the network(s).

[cassius969]

If you loose the flying drone or it malfunctions you have a casuality equalling 2/3rds of a platoon since the handfull of men you sent out are not enough anymore.

[efil4ohcysp]

Reminds me of Otacon's Mk.II and the ps3 controller used to control it. They need to add some stun gun or taser features to it

[azngangstr0]

wtf? xbox controller lol

[rasmasyean]

Reduces training costs since today's and upcomming kids are already experts at it! haha

[paintballie]

ya really

[Tyco200]

@rasmasyean Exactly! Tomorows troops! ...Uh... X box nerds? WIN :D

[TheArcticFALLOUT]

very clever since ps3 sucks
