Doesn't have jump jets, thrusters, missiles, lasers, or guns. Primary danger is the result of high pressure fluid and toxicity from cut hydraulic line incident, or from biological overheating.

Conclusion: one of the more benign engineering projects defense contractors are building.

Various practical problems (power-supply, cost, materials, maintenance, especially considering the proposed use) still exist with a hydraulic exoskeleton system as well, though this is one of the better attempts I've seen.

I don't expect it to remain gunless or benign for long.

Cool.

The Mobile Infantry of Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers novel is one step closer to reality.

Do not dare mention the movies.
