Now why would I do that?

The video of the submarine launching is pretty cool. One is that the audio signals are the same as the US uses. No surprise I suppose as a lot of these things are governed by international agreements. Don't want ships crashing into each other because one country's horn blast means something different than another countries.
The uniforms they wear look like hospital scrubs. I am assuming they are all cotton for fires. And while all the equipment looks rather antiquated by our standards, the sub is much brighter and lighter than any sub I have seen. I am sure it is not IRL, but it looks open and spacious compared to US subs.

Oh, and while nuclear war might suck, the Mad Max period afterword might be fun.

Blackhawk replacement is airborne.

Very cool! Really quiet. I wonder how the sound will change once they fire up that push prop...

I can't unsee "toy" with that double rotor set up having seen it prominent in toys first.

Russians have been doing it since modern GIjoe was born.

Oh I'm sure it's not new, it's just something rarely seen. At least for me. Whatever the above is, I don't recall ever seeing it. Pretty freaking cool looking though. Almost looks like something you would see on GIJOE.

Imagine what they're not showing us. Imagine how advanced this stuff really is.

Our robot overlords?

We're all really robots already huh

 

[ThunderDan19]

No entiendo.

Punctuation is our friend...

Our robot overlords?

At the very least the ones tasked with keeping us in line. Elysium is starting to more and more look like prophecy.

Or maybe the robots from the new Total Recall...

Its the GI Joe exo-suits, nobody bought because even Joe fans thought they were unrealistic

 

[ThunderDan19]

Joe was very much ahead of its time. So well done for when it was done.

Imperial death march.

 

[ThunderDan19]

Those things are effing creepy...

Something about the motions just looks like a horror film.
