What do u think if we issue similiar kit to infantry and mount it into boots?

It will help for speed , save energy ,quite and may save their live.

My required spec

1.Mount and dismount each in 5 sec.

2.Weight not more than 500 gm each.

Pl add your valuable spec.

i've always regarded ur posts with neutrality. but i think this one........is really quite crap.

1) training time - its bad enough ns is cut down to minimally 1 yr 10 mths, which compromises on training time. good for soldiers:) bad for trainers. to skate proficiently may take up to 2 months or more.

2) how r u gonna go into vegetation? or if u r an urban warrior, how to go up stairs properly and quickly?

3) it'll get lost, the same way ur kneepads get lost, or ur rifle cleaning kit.

4)it looks quite painful.

5) this is not gonna work for any of the vocations. not even infantry.

"2.Have i told u go into wrong place with this skate?"

I believe the problem is you can't go anywhere with this skate, not especially when you are "skating" with over 30 kilos of stuff.

"3.any thing may get lose,including yourself!"

I am sure given how useless a pair of skates are to a grunt in the field, he will quickly "lose" it and gladly sign the 1206

"4. and 5.Thats why i need u guys valuable input lah."

Here's my input, based on what we read in your posts:

Basic english and simple logic training would be far more useful for our troops

"Question:Any inventions?"

BTW, there's a human powered transport that has been used by the military to good use and certainly more useful and faster then skates... it's called a bicycle.

Skates? Leave it for the beach patrol police.

i think, the best thing we should do, is to ask lionnoisy for comments on practicality. lionnoisy? i'm asking this in fairness to you, everyone's entitled to his/her opinion.

Fatum SG

I'll give you +1 for creativity .....

noisy lion:

Bicycle troops are still okay..... the Japs showed the versatility of the bicycle in the invasion of Malaya during WWII.

Ski troops in snow warfare is still okay..... ski troops gave the Soviets hell during the Winter War phase of WWII.

But, uh.... inline skate troops? They're totally counterproductive in jungle warfare and almost totally useless in urban warfare. At least you can toss aside a bike if needed.... but uh.... taking off your blades and putting your boots on is a lot more difficult.

Don't believe me? Try charging up a staircase or a hill in a pair of rollerblades, then tell me what you think, okay?

stellazio SG

getting stuck in mud sure sounds good.

and how do you intend to move silently with wheels? defeats the 3 basic rules in outfield training.

tankfanatic SG

arball SG

wonderamazement SG

No equip armour with Lamborghinis?

For police patrols such as those in US beaches but not suitable for soldier in combat who is carrying much more than the average police officier. Even if the wheels can handle the additional weight, the ankles will surely hurt.
