Russia: created a combat exoskeleton for soldiers of future

In Russia, we developed the first prototype of a combat exosphelet equipped with electric motors, which can enter the equipment of the soldier of the future. About this RIA Novosti reported in the state corporation “Rostech” on the Forum “Army-2021”.

The industrial director of the arms cluster, ammunition and special spree “Rosteja Beckhan” Ozdoev said that this exoskeleton, which was created together with specialists from the Mechanics of MSU named after Lomonosov, can reduce the load on the musculoskeletal system by 50 percent, and energy costs On running or walking – by 15 percent. In addition, when using it, a person can carry up to 60 kilograms of cargo and shoot from automatic weapons by 20 percent more precisely.

It is noted that the exoskeleton servos are equipped with positional sensors, and the feet – pressure sensors, which allows it to adapt to the individual characteristics of the carrier and not to smell its movement. Head of the Laboratory of General Mechanics Research Institute of MSU named after Lomonosov, Vladimir Budanov also said that, thanks to the use of outer motor, the exoskeletons can be used both in active and passive mode.

previously reported. What during the Forum “Army-2021” Concern “Maritime Underwater Weapon – Hydropribor” presented an underwater drone, created for the study of the seabed. “The autonomous carrier of the hydrophysical equipment of the floating (ANGAPP) is used in the lighting systems of the situation, exploration and radio-electronic combat in the underwater environment as a carrier of various equipment in accordance with the task being performed,” is noted in the product description.
