But... can they create an internal version for a Man (or Woman) for lets say 6 million dollars?

Should we add this to the Flying Castle wish list?

Wow... looks really good. Appears to be well thought-out.

I was impressed by the shot of the guy running with this thing and a full pack. I wonder what that feels like, compared to without it? Imagine troops able to run or jog with a full load, but only the energy output of a fast walk, or an unloaded jog?

Wow. Combine this with the advances in the robotic “mule” systems... and the whole capability of infantry goes up an order of magnitude.
