Oh, I think that would be a great deal of fun, but honestly for the military? Retarded waste of money.

...but when you country is a heavily militarized country, that's what they do: Waste money on ridiculous shit.

Any country boy knows that the most useful way to get heavy gear into the back country is with a quad runner/ATV/4-wheeler.

They are faster, will carry more gear and people, aren't much bigger, have better ground clearance, easy to load/unload from a truck or plane etc., etc., etc.

The remote control function on that gizmo is interesting - but if you can R/C a glider/plane, you can R/C a quad as well.

All show and not much go - but they have a great potential for the consumer market!
