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."

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
