Dude, one ton? Im not even considdering using enough armor to withstand an
artillery or missle barrage. Thats way to inconcieveable. That kind of PA
wouldnt be woth the trouble. Lightweight, durable materials like carbon
fiber, magnesium alloys, and delrin would be perfect for building
lightweight, small PAs. Small, high torque motors in berring mounts would
privide flexability , strength, and ease of maintenence. The largest single
component would be the battery. Im in no way saying that this is at all
possible now, or even within a few years.

The current powered exos in the lab weigh about 100 lb apiece and can carry a
payload of over 70 lbs, but mobility is still rather limited. --Bram
