You really think the Future Soldier stuff was going to work? Super-armor, maybe. I don't think the invisibility would work reliably in combat, and soldier's don't need most of the electronic stuff or "smart bullets" . I saw on the Smallville page what appeared to be bad guys in invisibility suits defeated by spray paint. There's always a way around invisible. Suit doesn't hide heat, you might track how they disturb the air, and how do you see when invisible? Besides what happens when both sides are invisible? The future of war is not men in invisible motorcycle suits with smart rockets and robot tanks.

Edit: My bad, it was Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman where invisibility was defeated with paint.
