Matbock and Kopis working together? Only good stuff will happen
Man that beats the hell out of trying to manage that stupid telescoping pole in some choppy water.
I am not going to lie. Those robots creep me out for some reason. Cool as hell but there is something about that thing creeping silently up the side of a ship that belongs in a horror movie. It’s not as bad as that crazy four-legged load carrier that DARPA came up with though. I would shoot that on sight.
Keep your tin foil hat on stronk.
Man, they should field these in Jade Helm and watch the tinfoil hatter’s explode. Skynet has become self-aware!
