We are entering a new age as far as war fighting goes...just take the possible end of the F-22 in favor of more remote controlled predators and drones. I for one love all this stuff, the more damage we can do without putting our soilders in harms way the better. The cover of Popular Science last summer had an article about the fact that in the new future we could have something very akin to Iron Man type suits sans flight capabilities. I just wish it would all come out a little faster, some of the stuff showcased on all the future tech shows on Disc. and what not would revolutionize combat if they could work out the few remaining kinks. Just think of how demoralizing it is for an enemy when your fighting super-soilders and robots.

I remember there was this one thing on a show that was essentiall R2D2 with an assault rifle that essentially never missed it's taget! :eek:
