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.

i agree. i was also impressed by the karate kick and the sequence when the guy climbs up the "wall" with a full pack.

i used to laugh at the "army of one" slogan, but with this, "mules," advanced electronics, satellites, ucav's, and improved weaponry -who knows.

i think that it was in the paper, "unrestricted warfare" that two chi-com colonels wrote that in the future, a three man team could possibly take control of a small to medium sized city.
