I think that rough terrain and the need for stealth go hand in hand most of the time. And where you don't need stealth you can use cars, rcv's with wheels, helicopters etc ... just use real mules ... animal activists can go and *** ... after all no one even counts the animals that get killed in combat. [/quote] The thing is, how far along are they really? Judging from that video, things may look a bit clunky, but it establishes a point of fact to base conjecture on. That it can balance, recover from an unexpected directional force, and go up and downhill was shown in the video - finetuning such to allow for stealthy movement should be possible. What isn't answered is what range does the thing have, how independent is it really, and what type of sensors does it use to navigate with? One can basically project secret military projects to be a decade ahead (give or take a few years) of what is publically known. I basically can see all types of military uses for such a mobile base, especially in mountainous terrain.
