MOSCOW, October 1. /TASS/. A totally new Ratnik-3 combat outfit with a built-in exoskeleton and a target designation system on the visor is being created for the Russian Armed Forces, Army commander Col. Gen. Oleg Salyukov told journalists.

Salyukov said the issue of improving the Ratnik outfit, which is operational, is being worked out in the Ratnik-3 research work.

"I think the most successful technical solutions from Ratnik will be included in it, but it will be an outfit of a totally new level by all components - protection, destruction, life support, control and power supply, with the use of exoskeleton constructions, information and target designation on the visor or eyewear, microclimate maintenance and the serviceman’s condition monitoring systems ," he said.
