Is HALO coming to reality?

I don't play HALO or any game for that matter. (I would spend 24/7 if I were to start.) But I know enough from watching the commercials to knoa that the warriors have battle armor.

Now the military has this!

New Iron Man suit is faster, stronger than predecessor

Second-generation exoskeleton robotic suit developed for the military was unveiled on Monday

It just goes to prove. Whatever Science Fiction can dream up, sooner or later it becomes reality!

I don't like the idea of exosuits and never have. Technology has many applications in warfare, but it does one thing best of all - breaking. Plus, if we can't even afford top-grade body armor for our boys, much less proper armor for our vehicles, how the hell can we afford exosuits? Misappropriation of funds, just like so many military pet projects before it. *cough*Osprey*cough*

:lol:

When I was in the 5th SFG, they were gonna have us train with the Osprey due to it's flexibility and payload capacity.

We were in the field at the pick up area and the bird came in and promptly crashed on it's landing attempt. Our team leader looked at us and calmly said "well boys, looks like were gonna need another ride."

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
