India is fucked if we dress that thing up as a cow.

I can't help but wonder what the first reaction of people in say, Iran. I'd be in awe if I saw a mechanized cow walking with a squad of soldiers.

They should give that thing a super small head. Something about it having a large body, small legs, and a small face is hilarious in my head.

Oh god they're multiplying.

I added colors. Know I'm having nightmares tonight. [IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/7ykcBv.png[/IMG]

robot cows sweeeet

In two years it will evolve into this. [IMG]http://www.tpsreport.co.uk/news/uploads/mgs45l.jpg[/IMG] Moo.

That thing is so ugly compared to what the original Big Dog and Alpha Dog looked like. [editline]10th September 2012[/editline] At least it's way quieter...

The L3 is mostly just to get a working, field-operatable version that does the basics of the system. While BD and AD are the final products, hopefully, this is on the ground and usable now. Plus, even though it's boxy and ugly and slower, it still beats having soldier carry around 200 lbs of shit.

With the recent influx of these vid latley, I've noticed a lot of people are actually creeped about by these machines, more specifically the BigDog and AlphaDog. I mean I guess I can sorta see it, given the weird legs, but I find this stuff to be nothing but fascinating, not disturbing.
