More importantly, geneseeds when?

>>33483493

2nd generation medical assistance suits: 14 months from now. Battery powered, lifting assistance for working in Japanese hospitals.

Logistics suits: 3-4 years from now. Truck unloading action! Powered by gasoline engine. Lots of engineering uses of these too.

Combat suits: 4-8 years. Turbine/battery hybrid power. Run on JP 8 when power is needed, standby on batteries to save fuel when energy demand is low. Weapons platoon use, pretty much a way to let one man carry a mortar or HMG. Likely adapt them for standing sentry duty with climate control systems and better protection.

2nd generation combat suits: 10 years. Battery powered door kickers and assaulting suits. Heavy armor without feeling the weight.

And they still haven't figured out the finger problem. You would think they would put those partial gloves on that just cover between the thumb and index and that way you could put a piece of small metal on the back of the hand.

Given those timelines, I don't think we'll ever really see them in the US. Rome is falling.

>>33483734
I always thought logistics would be amazing for exosuits, even for engineers and shit for building COPS, hours of weightless lifting, only limited by fuel and operators not needing to take a shit.

I also had the thought for artillery crews, they could be hooked to a generator and throw shells downrange for as long as they want.

Fallout predicted the issue with power suits fairly well, that being the power source. Lithium batteries are a hazard at best and really don't last long.

I honestly see them being developed in logistcal and civilian roles first. But before that, advancements in batteries is needed.

Like give the loading crew some exosuits to lift shells? Wouldn't it be easier to develop some kind of autoloader instead?
>>
>>33483551
Our culture won't allow genetic manipulations any time soon, because of 'muh Nazism'. Leave it to the Chinese to create the future Super-Human.
>>
>>33485854
You'd still need someone to pre-load the autoloader and a crewman gives you flexibility the autoloader doesn't.

With the ability to carry more weight, will we see the disappearance of 5.56 and see more of 7.62?
>>
Have we heard anything new about the TALOS project? It seems like it has been ages since the last update.

Fucking 60% plate coverage and they leave us hanging just like that.
>>
>>33485897
No, we'll probably get more 5.56 because volume of fire and increased carrying capacity.

Besides, mechanical enhancements are the way of the future. We must discard our filthy flesh, and acquire the purity of silicon and steel.
