Military Skeleton Suit

The Military is making a new equipment to help in combat. The suit is to be worn over uniform pants. The Technology is being developed by Lockheed Martin, using 7 million dollars to try and help soldiers with their endurance. This project originally had the purpose of aiding people with mobility trouble, like Sclerosis. The military was interested in this project, because soldiers carry 2-3 times there weight. By the time they show up in the confrontation, many are fatigue and exhausted. This relates to engineering, because it’s mechanical in a way that all the parts have to work in synchronization in order to be fully effective.
