Exoskeletons transform U.S. military

[Pentdad]

really awesome like the bots in the Matrix or the Aliens powerloader.

[jutubaeh]

looks like a good addition to a nanosuit!?

[kingpin124]

To fight whom?

[3DVizzion]

My suit can lift 100 tons and throw it!

The armor is invicible, nothing can blow it up not even nuke.

It can fly around the world within a day.

And it can wistand almost anything known in this world!

You will see it soon because it will be here to fight for real justice around the world.

[grayson326]

Only 1 problem. You fall on your back, You're fucked.

[489michael]

@grayson326 LOL

[jbholland1987]

DUMPERT !!! +1

[TheBrDeath]

death to the false emperor?

[3horizontal3vertical]

Walking target...

[ReconLegend1]

wow

[MultiLaughmyassoff]

ghost recon future soldier :o

[Zentrix97]

Possible MJOLNIR or T45 Power Armor xD

[ephidapoon]

I don't think we will ever have working exoskeleton soldiers. Currently they dont have a power source capable of prolonged use for this, and by the time they do figure it all out (50 years?), our forces will be mostly remotely controlled robots, no need for humans at all.

[CruentusParvulus]

@ephidapoon Even if robots are used for military forces instead, we still might be able to use exoskeletons for paraplegics, amputees, and the like. :)

[ephidapoon]

@CruentusParvulus Its good technology for sure

[LeeroyFan101]

Imperial Guardsman!

[YouJustGotHustled]

that suit is fucking awesome

[Alphad0g0451]

Soon the US military will have Starcraft-style Marine Hardskins.

[MrDenocan]

Ironman,  Robocop....

[residentpainairsoft]

trololol you should hide your shiz better brit VVVV

[SuperCH4D]

fuckin america i bet they stole it from the british ... well thats what they usually do

[LordZacknafien]

OH YEAH LETS SEE JAPAN AND CHINA TRY TO TOP THIS SHIT!!.

AND I DONT WANNA HEAR SOME BULLSHIT COMMEN FROM ASSHATS SAYING THAT THIS WAS THOUGHT UP BY THEM FIRST BECAUSE I HAVE DONE SERIOUS RESEARCH AND THIS IS INFACT UNITED STATE MANUFACTURED TECHNOLOGY!

[MarkramUK]

@LordZacknafien Ignorant moron. If China had this why the fuck would they let the world know about it? And you honestly think every soldier is going to have one of these within the next 100 years? Jesus Christ.

[LordZacknafien]

CAN ANYONE SAY GREYFOX FROM METALGEAR!? :D

[enisho05]

This is no History of mankind.. !! the REAL Body are.. this is fucking REVOLuTION.. TERMATOR HAS BECOME A REALITY..

[yusafzai08]

The energy that fuels it will be the biggest problem.

[Litzen2k]

Starcraft marines?

[Appollyion]

with the advent of reactive armor and it's continuing research and development eventually it's projected that no existing small to mid range conventional weapon will be able to pierce it making a single platoon of exo-armor wearing elite soldiers capable of carrying out missions that would either be impossible or incredibly costly as to asset deployment costs, not to mention being able to make it impervious to radiation and biological weaponry. absolutely incredible.

[attananightshadow]

so soon soldiers are going to be out of shape like the rest of americans? sad in a way.

[SonsOfHateSphere]

POWER ARMOR !!!

[how2krushkings]

yes... but can they roundhouse kick?

[skah07]

avatar saga ...

[gmxgamer]

looks too vulnerable to bb guns fire

[SuperBomber01]

Looks to vulnerable to heavy weapons fire.

[shadowinthesystem]

yet... too much research and money is going into creating and selling these weapons...if there is no wars than this research is rendered obsolete...so as this is a vastly profitable market... Peace seems to be the enemy to companies doing this type of research... (Although this could always be converted into government funded services such as Police and Fire/Rescue, but than thats not nearly as profitable as War)

[CDouchkov]

@shadowinthesystem I agree with you there, but in that being said, a lot of today's civilian technology was developed for military use. In this particular case, I can definatly see suits like these with civilian uses. For example on construction sites with heavy lifting.

[Thefallenraptor]

@CDouchkov

agreed i think this will find great use in civilian affairs, construction, disabled people, rescue missions (earthquakes). for military use i think it'll be too expensive and nowadays it easier to just bring a tank or call an airstrike on whatever you want gone.

[shadowinthesystem]

@CDouchkov Absolutely, the civilian and commercial opportunity is there. But the funding and profits are greater when these are made for the Military. And in the Military, it has its non violent uses for instance moving heavy supplies and Ammunitions as well as other heavy objects. Yet theres still that theory when a weapon is made for war, we need a war to use it.And thats how the Arms companies fund such impressive devices like the one featured (I dont know who funded this just an example).

[shadowinthesystem]

Its not Artificial intelligence, its mechanics, its still controlled by the humans behaviour... Would you be afraid of your car?

[dj7310]

LOL what if it malfunctions and snaps someones arm or back?

[123aznflip1]

make a juggernaut suit like in call of duty

[SuperAnthony1978]

I'm not a tree hugging, shit between my toes hippie. But how about walking suits for paralized people,or war vets? And then work on mecha war machines. And again this is a fucking awesome !!!

[iamabgarcia]

kick ass.

invade the moon soon.

[Yvesyew]

I hope they don't use this to attempt some ultra difficult sex pose in bed room. haha

[Fatties09]

Cool...when can we start making space marines?

[AXELfrieman]

@Fatties09 After paladins

[evilandfriendz]

i swear to baby jesus if a branch of the military develops a full on battle suit ill enlist....ill quit my job...leave my family..and i will blow up ppl with my mecha suit

[316SAS]

IRON MAN 3 !!!!

[Typhoon10UK]

Stage one of a real life storm trooper.

[MrClayCummings]

now they're working on that along with invisibility. OH S***

[masterDevis]

If a suit like that can help improve my accuracy with a rifle, and can even HOLD any firearm, I might be interested. until then, I say that the exoskeleton is, like a walking armored mech, a stupid idea!

And if they make them, please dear God don't let anyone make them any bigger! Man-sized is enough!

[MrTheRichFactor]

Now if only they layered dragon skin over the enitre exoskeleton.

[chickenlampbrent]

@MrTheRichFactor dragonskin is nothing compared to the spider-goat hybrid composite web armor. Yes, goats crossed with spider dna produce milk laden with spider silk. Ounce for ounce the toughest material on earth it can be made into a fiberglas-like strand and layered in ceramic composite. It's not sci-fi and it's not that new either but it should be ridiculously resistant to ballistic effects.

[TheThh]

just like Spartans!! EPIC

[Numero103]

soon navy seals will turn into spartans

[TheBlazingVenom]

@Numero103 ohhhh thats gonna be kickfuckinass

[MEPHISTOPHELESw]

@Numero103 and the Marines will be fucked going in first and clearing an FOB or an LZ or just cause everyone else is to lazy or scared to do something, so the "seals" can do one mission and go home and the Marines stay to keep the area or do it again. It's sooooo gay. On a happier note MARSOC will probably get so too. :D

[eliteswordsman1]

they should make an avtar amp suit for the army!

[Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh]

There will be more potatoes in the US.

[gordongate]

get away from her you bitch

[0WARPATH0]

China will make a knock-off in 2 years for way cheaper and you can buy it from Wal-Mart

[id493337]

@0WARPATH0

You mean like this one /watch?v=sSo6C_gE4w8&feature=r­elated?

[bigbradford69]

This is the last thing the US needs with a $14 trillion deficit

[brilliancefilms]

um... they won't need a cable for long. They'll figure out a way to make it battery-powered.

OMG THEY'RE ABOUT TO INVENT MASTER CHIEF'S SUIT!

[321boileranimal]

How the hell are you suppose to poop wearing that?

[iwannabethekid34x]

@321boileranimal A small hole opens in the back and the crap falls out and then a machine automatically grabs toilet paper and wipes your ass for you.

[pudding0023]

@321boileranimal Back-door opens and when your done. Snaps back up $hit and all!

[zakwan1979]

10,000 of these against 1 emp bomb

Winner ---> emp... ha3

[NickBeaton92]

Emp shielding. 

[Cajaquarius]

@zakwan1979 We don't have EMP bombs. The only way we currently have to create an EMP burst as far as I know is air detonated nuclear weapons. Small scale EMP, even if it did exist, could be baffled with specialized insulation which would likely become standard if man portable EMP did become a reality. If the US enemies want to detonate nukes over their own territory and save us money then I certainly won't stop them.

[zakwan1979]

spartan's mjolnir armor in the works

[dangerboy544]

till 2050 well be like spartans from halo....

[Resondin]

@dangerboy544 and the chines are the covernant.

[danalinesmahoney]

@Resondin and yu has ar gewd spelloing.

[atapimonocle]

seeing this, I'm pretty sure that in ten years we will call ourselves "The Imperium of Man"

[zman91508]

lets see him jump decently

[LukeDiStefano1]

Space Marines in training.

[Darakon]

@LukeDiStefano1 Just what I was thinking!

[kwmkc13]

Ghost Recon!

[LotOfRap]

0:49 starcraft's marine

[TheMrSpartanking]

COOL. Im a kid lol

[KillPyrite]

reminds me of that forklift suit from aliens

[IchiDeux]

LOL, these are being manufactured because the US military is getting obese

[infernoreaper23]

anyone else think possible master chief or iron man??

[hm77065]

@infernoreaper23 Not master chief, he gets his strength from augmentations, not his suit.

[sinnerfire]

Who cares if its a good idea or a bad idea? As long as i can blow shit up with it, im happy!!

[smokeassault117]

@sinnerfire Fag.

[sinnerfire]

@smokeassault117 sorry i dont smoke?

[yusafzai08]

@sinnerfire spoken like a true American. No education, no healthcare, no jobs, no future, no prospects, but who cares....as long as he can fruckkking kill shyt....

[sinnerfire]

@yusafzai08 im not american? and your country has no health care, no future, no prospects..... theres jobs in your country but i dont think herding goats really counts? and im surprised that u have enough education to write such a dumb and stupid comment.

[zerohellix]

This is the precursor to mobile suits. put soldier in an even bigger exoskeleton and have it 300ft tall.

[RayXvideos]

UNSC Marine

[sinnerfire]

This is the first Terminator prototype.....and when it gets clever enough to realise that the only bit it doesn't need is the human bit, were all doomed.

[sylontuk]

@sinnerfire Agreed my brother from another mother

[bbrice5798]

@sinnerfire

T1000's great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather.

[MrTokeHard]

@sinnerfire whatever, scientist are smart enough to control it to make it what they want to do, you watch to many movies dork

[sinnerfire]

@MrTokeHard just by answering my "stupid" comment, means you acting like a troll and no one likes a troll faggit

[Elarithon1]

@sinnerfire No, the first terminator prototype will come with artificial intelligence, this thing has none. It has a program and nothing more. It doesn't think, it calculates. It does precisely what it's made for. We are still miles away from AI constructs and robots turning on us. First up is nanotechnology. Once that's developed properly, AI constructs may become more that Sci-Fi.

[ArticGhost100]

the military played halo and now get this..... AWESOME

[RiSe1993]

power wank suit

[121jiggawattz]

THIS IS SPARTA! (halo reference)

Enjoy!

[syntax128]

Ohh. now I know what I will build

[newmusic1986]

if this is for explorations it`s good! if this is for wars it`s so stupid!

[Cajaquarius]

@newmusic1986 All great technology is born of war. Jeeps, rockets, small computers, the internet, etc. It will likely first be used on the battlefield but it will be worth it when this stuff becomes common for the civilian police officer or worker. Can you imagine all the things we could accomplish with a suit that sextuples the wearers strength? Science, technological advancement, etc.

[BlizBob]

So... does it run on AA batteries?

[lightninglj]

@BlizBob What kind of apps does it have?

[gasaholic47]

Reminds me of Ripley's loader in Aliens...

[FifthofEleventh]

@gasaholic47 Which is probably what it would be used for.

[imicusdown]

*WE NEED AN AIRSTRIKE OVER HERE*

"no"

*picks up car and slings it at building*

[Anticrawl]

US Squadron coming up on insurgents decked out in billions of dollars in expensive robotic suits.

Insurgent detonates dirty bomb made over-night with instructions found online.

Entire squad frozen in time as statues, locked in their suits unable to move while the insurgents roast their still alive bodies over an open fire.

[Xao14]

That's a sucky exoskeleton.

[acecase25]

i saw this on modern marvels

[AceofWWII]

Yeah, and then the machinery gets shot. The "exoskeleton" crumples and the soldier is so used to it, he becomes pretty much useless... because he's used to the pull weight being LIGHTER. So he can't pull the suit off him and perform normal movements. Nothing can substitute a normal, non-assisted Marine.

[HackforumsWebsite]

@AceofWWII You could say the same thing about a human getting shot, useless.

Also, the machinery can have strong armor to prevent malfunction.

[AceofWWII]

@HackforumsWebsite

Not gonna change my opinion... NOTHING can substitute a normal, non-assisted marine, or soldier, or ANYONE serving in the military.

[stegz]

@AceofWWII Ignorant.



[AceofWWII]

@stegz

So what you're saying is our soldiers are inadequate, stupid, weak, and ignorant.

Unpatriotic son of a bitch

Our soldiers have been winning wars and fighting them for a long time with strength, strategy, and wits.

Even if it does give us an advantage, it will be an artificial advantage.

And if it does improve fighting, Our enemies will be sure to get a hold of it. including the Taliban.

You just don't think ahead. Just like how our world is. This will make things worse, not better.

[stegz]

@AceofWWII All I said is your Ignorant, I never even read the rest of what you wrote after your first line, your pissed off and its obvious. Quit being so narrow minded, and for being so. You're ignorant.

[CowFightsDragon]

@stegz and @AceofWWII the exosketleton is what we need, if we use this, then more patriots will live, and that will mean less casualties, and more soldiers going home to see their families. pretty soon, we might not need as much soldiers.

[AceofWWII]

@CowFightsDragon

Until our enemy gets a hold of it, just like all of our other weapons of war

[CowFightsDragon]

@AceofWWII but if we use these, plus a protective shell, odds are, he enemies wont get a hold of it. have you seen the movie iron man. if we upgrade to that, who knows the immense power we can weild. knowing that if they make the shell bulletproof, then odds are they wont get a hand of this technology. and i have another question, i doubt it but did you even fight in world war2? (with all due respect)

[AceofWWII]

@CowFightsDragon

No, but i have immense respect for all the soldiers who did fight during that war. i have 6 relatives who fought then.

Anyway, did you see Ironman 2? The enemy got a hold of it. and what happened was all hell broke loose. Same will happen here, but we won't have 1 "special guy' with a suit to save the people from millions of other "suited" enemies that are almost the same way. That "special guy" would die and the enemy would win. This WILL backfire on on us. I guarantee it

[CowFightsDragon]

@AceofWWII but his technology was inferior, only 2 people killed hundreds of copies, plus the boss. and not to mention that they won. even if they get a hold of it, they probably dont have the technology. plus, if the government wanted to, we could set a self destruct activation. so that way, they wont get a hold of it.

[AceofWWII]

@CowFightsDragon

Yeah... Who said they'd be making them as bots. They probably would be with a human in it. And thus smarter and more dangerous. And a self-destruct device would not work. The SOLDIER WOULD BE INSIDE. and if the soldier was captured and convinced to take his suit off and give it to the enemy, the "government" wouldn't know so they wouldn't blow it up. Its called friendly fire. Plus, the govt' isn't in control of this. They just approve it. Or not approve.

[HackforumsWebsite]

@AceofWWII its not substituting, its just helping our boys become stronger, safer, etc.

why are u acting like a rebellious old man that looks at new tech and hates it just because its there?

[AceofWWII]

@HackforumsWebsite

Know what? I'm just going to stop commenting and let you guys see what will happen.

Sure it may work for 10-20 years, But once it gets past that. BANG. So instead of me trying to explain. Let me just show you.

[Cajaquarius]

@AceofWWII The same could be said of aircraft, firearms, automobiles, and every other invention of war. You can't stop progress - if we don't develop these suits then someone else will develop them. You think the US is going to be the only country with predator drones forever? It is only a matter of time. The past isn't coming back. With new weapons that see through walls on the horizon (Xaver 800) an unaided marine will soon need armor, as cover and concealment will become a thing of the past.

[bitwin80]

starcraft ?? lol

[youngrelleus19]

omg any updates on the design yet?

[Ignuus66]

stuff like this should go towards cintruction and civil stuff instead of going to the military.. Civilians > military

[Cajaquarius]

@Ignuus66 Already will. The standard run for tech development is that it is used for military application for five to ten years and then used for Civilian operation once the kinks are worked out by the soldiers. War creates a perfect opportunity to push gadgets to their limits, test their toughness (not much tougher than sandstorms, bullets, and bombs for a field test) and it is much less problematic when a soldier dies then when a civilian dies due to new inventions.

[DMG125]

Those who post comments that Halo started the concept of the powered armor are ignorant because it is NOT Halo that started it.

It is the novel Starship Troopers that started it all, including the idea of "space marines"

[darkmankill1]

0:55 halo much...

[Spystreak]

the Enclave's becoming real haha

[jordach545]

Oh great... Why do I have the feeling that these are going to be used against American citizens?

[unambitious]

never mind it needs a power cart cabled to it... how about you guys spend money on cold fusion cells and then make the exoskeleton.

[ShakaSamurai]

please tell me this is fake? omg terminator here we come

[Kaarlo]

Spesh mehreens! Now we only need the Emperor.

[noodle050]

Why need that if we got Iron Man...

[1likestuff]

F***, wish u lot could spell

[Hardwyre]

Like the government would EVER spend $250,000 on a GI, let alone an entire platoon.

[Valen630]

@Hardwyre I can see something like this on commandos and other special forces

Soldiers of the future will still be like the soldiers of today...

[GregoryBurgondy]

halo armor was not desighned with mechanical components (not including the flashlight) there fore it does not have much in common. i wish they desighned exoskeliton mechanical armor. but all they have down right now is just the exoskeliton mecanil part.

[TheBastered]

plz, now I making myself realizing it the exoskeleton r turning out to be...more useless to come think about it, if it battery got shot and acid is spilling into ur suit the first thing u need to do is emergency exit ur suit with ur realizing it ur so f**ked you are with out ur suit or die slowly in your acid suit ur going die in.

[Nizzemancer]

I AM IRONMAN dudududu-dudu-di-dududi...

post-human solder?

[godhatesusall85]

Now they can deck out marines like they do in starcraft how badass would that be

[youngrelleus19]

wow is this all they can do for fuck sake we should be far more advanced then this bull crap man i need a time machine i feel like im in the dark ages of technology

[erererer2]

@youngrelleus19 can you do any better

[dennisdl2]

I heard something about $14.000.000.000.000,-
