Berkeley Bionics™, designs and manufactures lower extremity exoskeletons to augment human strength and endurance during locomotion. Berkeley Bionics exoskeletons increase wearer's strength while decreasing their metabolic cost of walking. The company is also attacking the technological barriers to a practical, affordable exoskeleton for civilian and medical applications, particularly to assist patients with neurological or muscular mobility disorders. These powered human exoskeletons would allow their wearers to walk upright without the strain and muscular effort required by today's unpowered orthotic devices.

as a solider myself, i find that the exo-skeleton would be very usefull in cobat and around the base, the only thing i would see that could be added would be for the pilots arms, what if the piolet needed to carry and use a piece of equipment wile on the move say a light machiengun, you could store an ammo containe on the back but over time you hands would grow weak of the weight of the wepon.

They should start trying to figure out a way to affix that thing with ceramic protective armor.
