True that would be fun to watch but people would complain and you will see mass protest about border patrol firing at drug smugglers and landmines to keep illegal aliens out.
I might be out of touch but is everyone in the US trying to keep illegal aliens from entering the US and stop taking jobs. Even though they are min. wage jobs and are not meant to be a career.
Sorry, I had to say something. Since this thread had no response for like three weeks or less.
If we had Marines in Space then we got Starship Troopers Dropship. That would be sooo cool. Then we need some soldiers who are rough around the edges and is willing to go out fighting. Also they follow the 13 rules in combat (reference to First to Fight)
Canada's view on aliens is give them $1000 to start off or welfare checks and give them free health insurance. Thats the Canadian way, we say hello to them and give them money for free. Almost like we accept them and don't care what the taxpayers will complain about wasting tax dollars. But I guess we don't mind helping people in need.
you think that they are researching on these type of ships I wonder. Then pretty soon, they have to build Space Marine base in space or some type of anti missile gun.
Most likely say goodbye to conventional warfare, its gonna to be laser, plasma or other type of guns used in Sci-fic novels and movies.
