This inspired all exo armor suits in later sci fi franchises. I like to think the United citizens federation army armor inspired the United Nations space commands army suits and the spartans mjolnir armor
No it did not for example the power armors in Warhammer were inspired by 2000ad comics. Maybe dont spout non facts like this because its fucking stupid
These designs look more like Halo Spartans than Robert Heinlein’s description of Starship Troopers Mobile Infantry. Kazutaka Watanabe who was the mech designer for the 1988 Starship Troopers OVA for each variant of M.I. suit makes you believe that 1 basic trooper is a death machine that devastates everything w/in a 3 mile radius. Those suits were big, bulky, and loaded w/ bombs, smart rockets, flame throwers, and machine gun. Comms, Sniper, Heavy Gunner variants and command suits carried a tactical nuke missile. These highly articulated spartan armor suits are not it. 😂
True but they’re close. What I would give to have a true to the book starship troopers game with tue mara under suits, egg deployment systems dropped from low orbit and being able to jump and hover to mark distant targets before moving forward
Starship Troopers the audiobook 📚 ! Classic science fiction from 1959. On West Point & USMC reading 📖 lists for years! War. Violence. Crime & punishment. Powered armor 3 years before Iron Man’ first appearance in Marvel Comics…. “Marriage is a young man’s DISASTER & an old man’s comfort.” - Starship Troopers the book 1959 th-cam.com/video/zwFMszIVGko/w-d-xo.htmlsi=45WQXDgLXZSZYJJ2
For every one trooper there’s a couple thousand bugs… the bug’s strategy is essentially what the red army used in ww2 but to an extreme level throw enough bodies and eventually it will die. Doesn’t matter how good you are you’ll either get exhausted run out of ammo or just get over ran eventually. Also these bugs are strong enough to rip steel like it’s paper.
@@stephenbyrne2170In the book there are no descriptions of the Bugs killing MI with melee. The Bug Warriors instead have energy weapons grafted on to their bodies.
Its amazing how this series started out as a criticism of how fascist americans are and about the war in the middle east, and then turned into AI lore videos on youtube.

Sweet suite.

I don't remember the source but I read that this novel also influenced the appearance of the mecha genre in Japan.
Yes but like Samus Aran
I really feel like halo was also heavily influenced by the book. Not so much the movie since they completely left out the marauder suits
@@brokenwrench404 well halo was created by writers not game designers

Yep. The power armor in the books were more like highly mobile, fast-moving, gunship/light artillery hybrid platforms.
Sweet video dude
The sweet.
ikr !?!! Lol. AI speech ? Or?
@@deaddropsd1972 junk

The scout armor is more lightly armed. Not necessarily less armored.
like this format!
Sweet.
Where did you find these wonderful illustrations?
wearing your sweet 😂
Cool
Is the word ape also used in the novel for the mobile infantry soldiers?
Yes, because the Power armor made them look like Apes.
It also references that the suit itself is so strong that it could easily squeeze a Gorilla to death.
nice!
Good
Suit is pronounced soot not sweet
Kewl
*Suite?
Suite😂
Only thing wrong in these designs is the helmet is lead shielded, no visor, with snoopers over the eyes like a vr headset.
The Starship troopers armors according to the book has globe shaped helmets

And yet it still can't keep troopers from being impaled by the Bugs?

@@knightblade0188 WELL THAT'S MY POINT.

@@stephenbyrne2170you’re confusing the movie with the book.
@@stephenbyrne2170 Lmao no, in the books all kills from the bugs are with their powerful energy biological gun attached to their bodies

The book is actually pro war afaik, or at least not the same anti fascist message as the movie
And then they still got clap by a mere warrior bug. Like are all the upgrades humanity have done are useless
Starship trooper and mobile infantry are two different soliders. AI and Robo voiceovers are awful.
