Special Operations Iron Man Suit on Track for 2018 Debut

BETHESDA, Maryland — Special Operations Command's much talked about tactical assault light operator suit is on track to make its debut in 2018, SOCOM's chief acquisitions executive said Feb.15.

TALOS, also dubbed the Iron Man suit, is about a "year and a half-ish away," said James "Hondo" Geurts, who serves as SOCOM's director of acquisitions, technology and logistics. 

"I think we will deliver a prototype. Will it do everything we want? That was never the intention," he said at the National Defense Industrial Association's Special Operations/Low Intensity Conflict conference.
