President Trump unveiled new uniforms for the United States Space Force Sunday, inspired by the sci-fi film \u201cStarship Troopers.\u201d<\/p>\n

The commander-in-chief shared a mock-up of the black and grey fits on Truth Social, which also detailed how they were \u201cinspired by the discipline of the Starship Trooper uniform\u201d but \u201cmodernized for the guardians of the space domain.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 1997 cult classic, based on the militaristic Robert Heinlein novel, is set in the 23rd century as humanity is fighting an intergalactic war against giant bug-like aliens known as the Arachnids.<\/p>\n

People on social media were quick to quip that the uniforms were also reminiscent of the Imperial officers in Star Wars. <\/p>\n

\u201cSWEET your [sic] going galactic empire! Let the Force be with you lol!\u201d one person joked.<\/p>\n

\u201cLooking a whole like like Stars Wars Imperial Army Officer uniform,\u201d another agreed.<\/p>\n

\u201cSorry, but that looks like a Star Wars Evil Empire uniform,\u201d a third quipped.<\/p>\n

\u201cStarship Troopers\u201d director Paul Verhoeven has said that the movie, which stars Casper Van Dien and Neil Patrick Harris, was meant to be a satire of a \u201cfascist utopia.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI decided to make a movie about fascists who aren\u2019t aware of their fascism,\u201d Verhoeven, who\u00a0grew up in the Nazi-occupied Netherlands\u00a0near a German military base, told The Guardian in 2018.<\/p>\n

Trump revealed the new military digs during a massive social media blitz over the weekend, during which he also shared an image of the moon with the words \u201cThe Moon is Ours,\u201d and the American flag to the side.<\/p>\n

Trump established the United States Space Force (USSF) in Dec. 2019 during his first term in the White House.<\/p>\n

Last month, the president announced plans to create a new military Space Academy to train the next generation of civilian and military aerospace experts.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cYou think of West Point, and you think of Annapolis, and you think of the Air Force Academy and you think of the Coast Guard Academy. It\u2019s great. They\u2019re all great, but we\u2019re going to have now a Space Force [academy].\u201d<\/p>\n

The USSF earlier this year detailed its plans to defend US space capabilities and achieve \u201cspace superiority\u201d in a manual titled \u201cSpace Warfighting: A Framework for Planners.\u201d<\/p>\n

The space-faring military branch defined space superiority\u201d as having a \u201cdegree of control that allows forces to operate at a time and place of their choosing without prohibitive interference from space or counterspace threats, while also denying the same to an adversary.\u201d<\/p>\n
