I am not afraid of a cloned army. I believe it to be a fool's errand, destined to failure, because there is no way to control the process the way a totalitarian leader would want it.

I am not afraid of a cloned army.

They might all be strong, fast, etc., and all look the same so uniforms would be overkill, but it ends there; each is a person with his own mind and no family. All would be orphans raised by the state, and some will be highly annoyed by that. Good luck trying to make an army out of that.

The last thing generals would want is for an enemy to be able to capture one of their cloned soldiers and be able to know, by examining its prisoner, the threshold of pain, reaction to heat and cold, and other natural vulnerabilities of the entire cloned army -- and genetically engineer a virus specific to that clone, which wipes out the entire enemy while not affecting one's own army in the slightest.
