Yes yes I always knew that they weren't as high tech as they should be. I mean, by then we would have come up with some other sort of weapon than a rifle. Something much more powerful, smaller, better accuracy, guided projectiles etc. And even things we can't even imagine now.
The MJOLNIR exo-skeleton I think is about right, even without the shield, it's very advanced.
I mean, the best exo-skeleton that increases strength that we have at the moment is some crappy inflation tube thing, that only increases your strength by 3. John's armour doesn't have any inflatable tubes in it (don't tell me they're on the inside, because they're not).
Also, the MJOLNIR exo-skeleton is supposed to increase your reflexes and interface with your brain. At the moment, we have no idea what's going on up there. There is so many things we don't understand about it, and we would take many many many years until we fully understand, let alone be able to interface with a computer on such complex levels.
I know that at the moment the Japanese have been working on many things with brain-computer interface. And have been able to let a monkey move a robotic table with a banana on it. I guess that it's cool, but MC isn't a monkey, and that's very simple compared to what the MJOLNIR suit can do.
