Very rarely does the high tech stuff ever make it into the combat zone.

and rightfully so because its just more crap you will have to carry that you know will break after the first skirmish.

Soldiers will use technology if it makes sense for them to do so. Just look at gunshot detectors on military transports. Soldiers LOVE those because it gives them an immediate and extremely accurate threat assessment, although it doesn't work until they are being fired on.

Imagine taking all of the detection data used over years of testing and putting it into a small self-contained device which has a very high degree of threat detection confidence, supported by a larger military unit with real-time information feeding into it. You can have small military units performing missions; having tremendous situational awareness and the opportunity to remove threats before they can pose real danger.
