Edited. by Daniil Priluchny [Slovodel] Representatives of Rostec reported that military exoskeletons were tested in Syria, where they were included in the equipment of sappers of the Russian Federation Armed Forces. The exoskeleton has increased their combat potential. Bekkhan Ozdoev, industrial director of the cluster of weapons, ammunition and special chemistry of Rostec, told RIA Novosti about testing combat exoskeletons in real conditions . He was honored to present a sample of an exoskeleton with electric motors on the sidelines of the Army-2021 forum. "In addition to increasing the capabilities of a serviceman, the combat potential of the entire unit is increasing many times over. This is evidenced by the experience of combat use. In Syria, sapper units are already operating, equipped with passive exoskeletons," the corporation noted. According to Ozdoev, the exoskeleton significantly reduces the load on the musculoskeletal system, and energy costs during running and walking are reduced by 15%. In addition, their development allows the military to take with them 60 kilograms more, since the exoskeleton distributes the weight and removes the additional load from the person. The development also allows you to fire from automatic weapons 20% more accurately and helps to solve the issue of recoil when firing. |
