Gi joe movie costumes

[MTN]

I not sure if this has been brought up or not, but I think it's possible that the gear that the Joes have in the new movie might be based after gear that will be out in the near future. I'm not how factual these articles are, but this is what I found for the future soldier. It's really sci-fi and it's apparently in development. They say the GI. Joe movie takes place ten years or so in the future, maybe they referenced these pictures when designing the costumes.





They do look quite similar in my opinion.

Future Military Technology

a lot of sounds ridiculously expensive and it also sounds like they are no where near making all the stuff that this little get up promises. The last exoskeleton I saw a video was just retarded looking and not practical at all, unless you think going into battle on stilts is fun.

I not trying to point out what the military has planned, I more of wanted to compare the similarities in the look of the uniforms/costumes.

I wouldn't doubt that a good portion of whats seen in the upcomming movie "could" be realistic ONE day, although I'm sure that a bit of it's probably far-fetched as well.

On a side note......as much as I like your article, you probably just sparked another vent session for all of the intellectual giants who have programed their brains and digits to process and type nothing but, THE MOVIE WILL SUCK!!........ DUKE DIDN'T WEAR THAT!!!!!!

Here we go again....*Sigh*

you know this is a good point and one I was thinking of not too long ago. If you look at some of the Joe weapons back in the 80's they were cutting edge and on the edge of sci fi. It isn't that big of a stretch to think that they would do that now. Anyhow yeah they do look a bit alike.

Not to mention that final suit is some the military see possible 20 to 30 year from now

Those are designs that the military wants to begin deploying in about 25 years or so. I don't know what their progress is on some of that, especially the active camouflage. I know they've made all of that stuff work, and it ALL exists, even the active camouflage, but the power supply is the main problem that they are trying to get over. The size of the cameras and displays required for the AC needed to be shrunk down more too.
The AC will probably deploy in vehicles first in about 20 years. I still don't know if they can get the power requirements down for the personal version within 25. They are trying to develop new solar panels that are more efficient than current technology that they can add to the uniforms and back packs.

MTN I agree. I think the movie suits are what the military calls the Future Force Warrior since the movie is set in near future any way.

You're probably right.
