I don't see a suit like this be effective on the battlefield anyway. Unless they want to make a nanosuit ala Crysis all that suit is going to do is slow people down and restrict their movements. They may be stronger, but thats about it. I think a suit like this has more use on an aircraft carrier or a arms depot for loading ammunition or hauling heavy parts around. Won't ever see it in combat though, thats for sure.
Agreed.

I also have a hard time seeing the military shelling out the scratch for such technology. I mean, the soldiers in iraq are still using flak jackets from Vietnam for christs sake.
