> It costs $500,000 to train a NAVY SEAL > SEALS are deployed into extremely dangerous areas, where combat is essentially assured > All it takes is a $0.78 7.62 round to either disable or kill a Navy SEAL worth $500,000, if not more
So why the fuck doesn't the Pentagon fully invest in Kevlar type combat suits, to significantly lower the chances that the SEAL will be killed/disabled?
>inb4 too expensive
We waste more money on other useless retarded shit! Keeping our top warriors safe seems more important.
Because their intelligence and weapons are so effective they don't need that defensive support most of the time.
Ryder Cooper
They do. Seals just choose not to wear heavy ass shit
Oliver Reed
I can tell you've never been in the military. Shit is heavy and makes you useless if you're forced to move long distances. You take only what you need.
Carson Diaz
I agree. They wouldn't even need to make suits for all active duty SEALs. The suits could be for select SEALs who run combat ops.
But the pentagon is Jewish so...
Jordan Barnes
More weight, too bulky = slower soldiers
Connor Jackson
or, we could stop letting the government train super soldiers to kill foreigners in countries we're not at war with
Blake Sullivan
Which is why they could be for the SEALS who are sent on the most dangerous combat missions. Like the Osama raid.
Asher Perry
weight and mobility. even wearing current full battle rattle fucking sucks dick. especially if you in an area with mountains like afghanistan. and if you want to build a fully armored mobile infantry type suit, you'll need to supply a lot of power to it and we don't have batteries that can do that yet.
Landon Brooks
You're saying that those combat suits fully exist?
Sebastian Reed
Protecting the Jews is worth the money, because after all the 2nd coming, Jesus and those angels and shit.
Justin Young
>not investing in AI killer swarm drones instead of bullet sponge meat....
David Murphy
Aren't the Navy SEALS supposed to operate mainly in water? I thought DELTA were the go-to land based special operations unit.
Aaron Carter
Yes.
Jason Gomez
They wear buttplugs so they're waterproof
Grayson Sanchez
>So why the fuck doesn't the Pentagon fully invest in Kevlar type combat suits Kevlar wont stop rifle rounds and most casualties are caused by high explosives anyway.
Julian Hall
Doesn't even have to be that smart Just imagine small solid rocket powered craft with rudimentary optical tracking and a small shaped charge dropped by the thousands You can shoot down a great many, and some could miss, but absolute spam is going to down many things
Jackson Robinson
>he doesn't know combat mobility is superior You must be 18+ to post here.
There is more dumb goy cattle on the assembly line, an unlimited number of trained SEALS. 500,000 is chump change, you just put that on Uncle Shmuel’s tab.
Blake Butler
Jump out of a helicopter wearing full body armor.
Christian Carter
Retard.
Julian Miller
traditional SEAL missions weren't/aren't needed in afghanistan/iraq but they wanted to give them some action so they did/do a lot of land ops
Noah Morales
OMG AN AMERICAN THAT HAS BEEN HERE SINCE BEFORE STORMFRONT RUINED THIS PLACE TAKE A PICTURE WITH YOUR PHONE
>It costs $500,000 dollars in tax payer money to give bragging rights to a future welfare queen who will never even come close to destroying $500,000 worth of enemy assets >The USA wonders why it is going bankrupt and still hasn't won the "war" 20 years later
Just how much money are we supposed to piss away before we finally say enough is enough?
Josiah Miller
The thick gloves of a kelvar suit would impede a SEAL's ability to write novels and screenplays about their heroic antics, which is the primary role of navy SEALS
Jacob Lee
It's too expensive. The cost for r&d would be way past saving 500k per fag
Leo Howard
So why did the CIA send the SEALS to take down bin laden instead of Delta? Seems like the SEALS are always in the spotlight.
Angel Cruz
Why don't we just send a battalion of retards strapped with bombs?
Commando troops are light infantry. They wouldn't be as light anymore, if they carried a full body suit with all the necessary auxillary devices (cooling, movement, power). And you would need at least cooling to remove the heat of a human body doing intensive work.
Isaiah Miller
JSOC have had the tech for at least 30 Years.
Iraq and Afghanistan were just testing grounds. I wish we had EEMARS though when hunting down Saddam. Underground peering is a huge advantage now. I was on TF121 and 6-26.
Jackson White
Seals can spin a beach ball on thier nose.
Kayden Sullivan
Ezo suit tech is old user. They have documentaries on that shit from 2000 being used for military. 20 years ago!
well that was SEAL team 6 which is part of JSOC's special missions unit. it was a basic raid in the dark.
Brody Miller
>So why the fuck doesn't the Pentagon fully invest in Kevlar type combat suits Even if you're wearing body armor, getting hit by bullets fucking hurts and can still do serious damage to your body. Even if we made armor that could reliably stop more bullets, the guy who gets shot would still be out of commission for a long time.
Logan Peterson
That is not true at all.. If you ever saw master chief he is one of the best soldiers and has a very bulky armor.
Aiden Nguyen
This guy only spent $15k. That’s a used Lexus.
Cameron Morales
is that an armor vest on him? why is so small? half the langs are uncovered, what's the point?
Here's a hint: NAVY SEALS aren't for "combat". They're for OTHER SHIT, where OTHER SHIT is stuff ordinary soldiers aren't trained for. Yes they are more capable but no they aren't -that- much better than the average soldier in a firefight.
