    Default US Army plans 'Iron Man' armour for soldiers

    It's really not the iron man suit your expecting, at the moment it's this




    It also won't fly in which case it will have to be small and lightweight for agility, so basically the above skeleton.

    The final machine would most likely be Human amplification based and will end up looking like that robot from Avatar. In which case it will be more of an exo-skeleton and less of a suit since the final product won't run on an arc reactor and will need the space. This weeks popular mechanics has a good article on human amplification and the possible future.
    My ignore list: n/a

    This is epic, I'd love to go check that Popular Mechanics article out. I love it how people improve warfare, one day would have Boxer or Startale Life just sitting in the Pentagon playing what seems to be sc on a massive screen! And then the Koreans will win hahahaa. But all jokes aside, this is really cool!
