let me give you an analogy.. bronze age sword and shield vs iron age sword and shield vs steel.... and that was a development in equipment in under 3000 years. or take a ww 1 helmet versus a modern day one, that is less than 100 years

(those in the bronze age had no idea something like steal could or would exist and they would not have known how to deal with enemies with such superior weapons (as has happened many times in history)

also: i would not really base anything as far as calculations are concerned, on movies, games and other works of fiction. as those  are pretty useless/based on the imagination of idividuals but without much of a scientific basis.

also: i doubt that you are that much of an engineer to get all the statistics and data ;)
