All these electronics are great, but there won't be a revolution in infantry systems until we actually have suits of artificial muscle with composite armor usually found on tanks than can take several direct hits from a .308 without the operator feeling much. Then, and only then, will they be able to say it's like something out of sci-fi.

Until then, you're just going to have to lug around the computer, cameras, and communications equipment without the assistance of mechanical strength augmentation. Sucks to be you, future soldier.
