The Land Walker is a one-man, two-legged supposed walker transport, 3.40 metres in height. Made with the assistance of P.A. Technology, the walker is copyright of the Sakakibara Kikai Co. and Ltd.

The vehicle's design features a cockpit, two legs, and two air cannons (each firing large rubber balls). The legs end in feet containing wheels that help push the walker forward. The walker's usual speed is approximately 1.5 km/h.

Wow that's crazy! The first video links url is wrong or something. It walks really slow though, you could definatly out run that thing lol

you wouldnt have to out run it cos of 2 reasons.
first, it would never make it to the battle in time.
second, even if it did make it you would hear it a mile off.
needs alot of refinment but hay 20 years is a long time.
what they want to do is attatch a rocket launcher to it

That's true, definatly loud and slow. The battle would all be over and here the mechs would come walking up. lol

I just dont get it. Why would you want to make somethin like that. Its cool lookin but it wouldnt be able to get anywere. The slightest hill would tip it. Why dont they just make a tank with relly long armour skirts. Sure it would constrict its movement ALOT but it would have MUCH MORE mobility than a walker. It would be cool

and use full for movies and stuff though(the real thing is better that special effects)

They do it for the best reason in the world... Because they can.

thats a good enough reason as any, its not even a walker though its a roller on stilts, lol, a walker is the machines found on BF2142 where they lift each leg to walk, and i agree, tanks are alot better atm anyway but i do belive this is just a concept of getting the canopy balanced and it not tipping over.

saying that i think they should of removed the weapons as that made it look silly.
