Ummm.... right.

All military vehicles have been standardized a long time ago... Unless a segway can go up a 45 degree incline, ride through mud, sand and even a small river.... you won't see it in the military anytime soon. That's why the Humvee was invented... they had no jeeps that could keep up with the rest of the tanks and stuff...

Nice try though. I admire your faith in this product.

it allows an infantryman to carry more water and ammunition and allows him greater speed of mobility.

perhaps a division of elite segway infantry should be formed, to the us could be the first to use this new technology.
