Master Chief Suit for Military Use

**Yeti** · 07-28-2007, 03:48 PM

Now if your an Xbox gamer like myself you obviously know the game "Halo". Halo take places in a different planet thats shaped like an actuall Halo. A super-high tech soldier named "Master Chief" and his surviving Marines crash land on Halo and fight aliens. You get the idea. Well, some guy in America has made an actuall suit alot like Master Chief's except it looks a little different and he wants to use it for the military.

Here's a picture of what the actuall Master Chief looks like.

well, even if it works like he say, it is not very good as camo and have got to be much less mobile then the ones they use now.

It wouldn't work too well unless they used a material which is light, like titanium threads. too expensive to be efficient.

yes mobility would certainly be a problem you would have to start using bionic humans for those suits.

maybe it could be outfitted with servomotors to take up some of the weight and allow for more mobility.

as far as camo goes... it could also be equipped with 'chameleon' technology (which would probably cost more than the actual suit, but is available)

the suit does seem a lil' impractical, but i'm sure with a military budget and a little R&D would do wonders.

then again... of course the military is already exploring options for a head-to-toe battle suit.

This was done by a Halo fan

Wow, these suits look pretty cool.
It'd make a good movie suit; Hopefully.

Will never happen. Maybe for a 4-5 man unit, but the military is much too cheap in regards to its soldiers to spend the money necessary. Soldiers already have to buy enough crap that the military should be supplying.... all they need is to raise money for a multimillion dollar video game suit....
