Wired, lightweight and ready to kill

Future soldier to have massive network

In the researchers' designs, soldiers of 2011 will step into wired uniforms that incorporate all the equipment they need. The uniforms will monitor vital signs and plug them into a massive network of satellites, unmanned planes and robotic vehicles the military has planned.

they forgot to mention the one thing that would make everyone shit.

cost per soldier.

there was a lot of hype about a proposed gun to replace the M-16 in the future. it only cost $15,000.00 per gun.

You forget about the one thing that makes the Army shit....

Cost per deceased or disabled soldier.
