The face of the U.S. military is radically changing. Technology is evolving faster today than ever before, and the U.S. military is determined to be at the cutting edge of applying futuristic technology. A lot of things that once were only in the world of science fiction are quickly making their way into the U.S. military. In fact, there are some projects in development that are so bizarre that it is kind of hard to believe that they are real. After all, creating soldiers with superhuman strength and endurance using pharmaceutical drugs, outfitting soldiers with exotic prosthetics and mechanical exoskeletons, implanting microchips directly into the brains of soldiers to give them an advantage in battle and editing the DNA of soldiers to make them the ultimate killing machines all seem more like something out of a really bad summer movie than real goals that the U.S. military should be pursuing.But they are.
