Suborbital Marines

[chaseinyourface87]

@bigguy677hotmailcom ...its the marine corps we cant afford shit lol all we get is the other services old broke ass shit...hell looks like were still using the same ol' abrams tank 43yrs in the future!! haha...i did love how the weapons floated up and started "flagging all the other marines" in the bird haha good stuff.. Marine Corps is next to never on the cutting edge im surprised we got the Osprey first...the digi camies i understand cuz we always want the best looking uniforms lol

[bigguy677hotmailcom]

im pissed that the old airforce symbol is on the wings instead of the eagle globe and anchor. i mean come on..... its the marines.....

[ArmchairTroop]

It's the same logo the USMC uses on nearly all their aircraft.

Go ahead, find me a picture of a USMC aircraft that uses the eagle, globe, and anchor instead. I can wait. I would post links to pictures here but Youtube is being annoyingly stupid and wont allow me to post links. I'll try PMing some to you.

[wazp4]

ODST's will become the real thing. Im definitely enlisting now

Space Marines FTW (For The Win)

[lovestospooj]

Great video... rock the 80's!!!

[TherealMarcomanRedux]

Space Marines!

[Bloodgod40]

The rifles floating weightlessly up from the cardboard cutout plastic marines made me ROFL.

[USMCkid89]

nice video but the music could've been better.

it kinda reminds me of top gun :\

as for the Marine Corps

this is only one ground breaking weapon that they have.

they are currently experimenting with rail gun technology too and trying to implement it into tanks and small arms.

the USMC is and always will be the tip of the spear.

no matter how hard the US ARMY tries to modernize, they will never be as tough nor elite as the US Marine Corps

[ArmchairTroop]

Actually I was sort of going for a Top Gun/80s action movie feel :D with the music.

Glad you liked the video though.

[memorex3248]

this is fucking awsome. I just read this in popular mechanics.

Im joining the Marines this summer and you can definently sign me up for this. oorah!!

lol and also... i like how the troop transports are about 30x the size of earth. might want to fix that.

[Badger887]

if they had this technology why are they using abrams and SCARs? lol

[ArmchairTroop]

Because the Abrams isn't going to be replaced for at least thirty years? Can you name me the next American main battle tank in developement? The M16 has been around since the 1960s and it's still being used today? The SCAR isn't even being used yet and how long do you think that's going to be around for when you consider how long the M16 has been around? Clearly you have no idea about military tech developement. They take decades to be made and tested, and they take even longer to be replaced.

[shayw21]

wow, he was just using his imagination. Looks like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed, huh? Take a chill pill.

[yetti2485]

damn good job.

[PGGraham]

Um, You might want to learn a bit more about Military and Space ops before you make more of this sort of vid. I was too turned off by the completely wrong tech to notice how nice the vid might have been.

[PGGraham]

I should be clearer. I'd be happy to help and explain some of this, rather than just bitching.

[ArmchairTroop]

And keep in mind this is in the future. I had Abrams tanks for the USMC, T99s and WZ-551S for the Chinese. I used the RSTV Shadow for the Marines because it's a POSSIBLE future replacement for the humvee.

[julz1278]

um...how long have you been doing 3d max for?

also you should concentrate a bit more on the lighting.

[ArmchairTroop]

Less than a year. Why?

[julz1278]

thats pretty good for a less than a year

[ArmchairTroop]

Thanx. Have you also done any 3D/CGI related projects?

[julz1278]

yes ive been teaching myself 3d max 9 for about 2 years now, tho i havent really done any major projects exept for my year 9 art project

[Spaceboy123]

interesting.

[sambozauk]

Its all very good making this vid. But why in earth would you want to use that kind of technology on the human race itself,lol. Unless you wanna use it in outer space properly, which no doubt youll ave to in the future, it would be a world effort, not just the USA. You Americans seriously overrate yourselves,hehe!. I did like the vid though :)

[ArmchairTroop]

Ummm... I'm not even American, nor was I making any political statements. This is simply showing possible future military technology in an exciting way.

[AEigner]

Those Humans in the tanks and APC's in the beginning are attacking and killing innocents far away, soooo.. I'd like it used on them. And I'm all for the world effort - if quick-deployment on this scale could be implemented, a lot of petty asswipe's around the planet would think twice before pulling any shit.

[ugstimmy]

i thought i was depressed before... now i just want to kill myself after watching that... yikes.

[ArmchairTroop]

Umm, you mind telling me what the fuck your problem is? I'd like to see you come up with something better otherwise give me some constructive criticism.

[ugstimmy]

yikes! it was more of a joke than anything. sorry. no i'm can't make any sort of 3D models or anything... i'm sorry that you're so freaked out by random people on the internet.

[Psychotol]

Interesting. Good concept for global reach. You need to be ready to take off faster though.

I'd also want to be on the ground and ready to blow shit up faster, I'd be thinking about air drops or a variation of touchdown drops (not the technical name I suspect, you know when you touchdown, open a 'chute on your freight to offload it, and take off without stopping?).

Enemy won't wait for you to land and disembark before shooting at you.

[Jmcenanly]

I am thinking of the techniques used in Heinlein's Starship troopers where the troopers dropped in from space without the use of a vehicle, other thana mechanized suit.

[CanadianFabe]

Your welcome, I'm Fabe

[CanadianFabe]

Nice job,glad you told us at evo command about this or else I would have probably never seen it .

[ArmchairTroop]

Thanks, which one are you on evo command?
