Essential Approaches to the Future Soldier’s Necessity to Use the Passive Exoskeleton

Ongoing technological advances have led to the facilitation of specific supply chain operations in general, and military supply chains in particular, in order to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of military and other operational logistics. In this regard, the robotic exoskeleton system plays a particularly important role, along with other technologies that facilitate the successful conduct of national and multinational military operations within the armies of the North Atlantic Alliance nations. In developing the content of this material, we have taken into account the requirements for the future soldier’s behaviour and actions, which include extensive use of the passive exoskeleton to facilitate the transport of each soldier's payload of necessary supplies and weapons, as well as to increase individual mobility during offensive and/or defensive military actions. At the same time, we have highlighted the importance of qualified personnel’s use of the exoskeleton system in the carrying out of operational logistic support activities for the fulfillment of missions assigned to the combat forces.
