The Hazard Teams from the Elite Force PC-games are almost as ggod as MACO from ENT and better armor then your MACO (it ccan used as a spacesuit) and has HUD even without a helmet.

Hazard teams also have personal-shields which compliment their armor.

I think Civil War soldiers would be hard pressed to overrun ST Earth. Sure take away the Federations massive advantage in intel, air support, transporters, ect. Then maybe the Civil War armies could defeat the Federation but even then they would take massive casualties.

I mean do you seriously believe the armies of the Civil War could defeat the Federation in ground combat with all the technological advantages the UFP would possess?

The advantage in other technologies that the UFP possesses is so high that the stupidity of their ground combat tactics wouldn't matter in the end.
