OK how does this relate to ROC or the future of GI JOE? I'm watching (DISH Network 193) Popular Science's the Future of Combat 9 pm to 10 pm repeats at midnight eastern standard time.
As much as people want to complain about the uniforms and equipment in ROC, it's all a work in progress in some form or fashion. Cool mini tank called the Ripsaw.. Sorry no pics or links. Might be on Popular Science's website. Episode is about mini tank (two seater or remote control), bullet reflecting armor from fish scales, mind-reading helmets, invisibility cloak, and remote control robots. Some cool stuff and the camo cloak is being created here in Durham, NC at Duke University...Damn!! Anyway, gotta go! Yo Joe! |

Say it isn't so. This is the movie forum. Your not allowed to post links to information that may acutally legitimize anything about ROC.

Yeah, we've stated before that the RA-Suits and such are in development. Nanomites are under development as well.
Should be an interesting series to watch.

I didn't see anything in ROC that made me go "no way!". GI JOE has always had 'cutting edge' gear so for a film set in the 'near future' that tech will seem even more 'sci-fi'.
Besides, we're aware of all this amazing stuff in the public domain, so imagine how much more there is behind closed doors.

Advances in Combat Tech have always interested me.

And the old ARAH "tech" (from comics and cartoon) was a helluva lot more "out there" then anything shown in RoC.
Weather Dominators, Pyramids of Darkness, Brainwave Scanners, MASS Devices, etc.. back in the 80s was a helluva lot more "out there" then Reactive Impact Armor, Accelerator Suits and Nanomites in the 2000s.
