i think technology like this is bad for militaries, it makes soldiers so heavyily reliant on them that in the end it makes them careless.

think of it this way, say a small child is to learn math (multiplication, division.....) but instead of teaching him the mathematical rules he is given a calculator and just told what buttons to push. now after a while he\'s a master at using the calc. then suddenly the batteries die out, once that happens the kid is lost, he cannot solve anything even the simplest of calculations.

in short a little technology is good, too much and it can be harmful.

Tyrant, as cool as this technology is, you are 100% right. The soldiers are gonna get a bit cocky. What they probably will do is train them to not be so reliant on the equipment.
