A former special soldier for the Soviet Union, currently a fugitive from the Russian government.
Electro-spun Integrated Body Armor with Augmented Reality:
The Headgear Subsystem: situational awareness hub of the system; bio-mechanically engineered with augmented reality capability. It includes integrated tactical processing (e.g., maps, routes, SA data); 180° emissive visor display; high data rate (gigabytes per second) communication; microelectronic/optics combat sensor suite that provides 360° situational awareness; terrain and environmental information; integrated small arms protection in selected areas. Contains on-board respirator to protect from noxious fumes with a reinforced visor adapted for wide peripheral vision.
The Combat Uniform Subsystem: contains three layers: the Protective Outer Layer, the Power Centric Layer, and the Life Critical Layer. Contains liquid body armor composed of flexible cloth integrated with nanotechnology carbon tubes and nano-muscle fibers to enhance strength. Lightweight exoskeleton over outer layer provides additional strength, speed, and stability; allows for increased workload at only a percent of the body's normal effort.
The Warfighter Physiological Status Monitor (WPSM) Subsystem: collects information on the vital signs (core temperature, skin temperature, heart rate, blood pressure) hydration state, stress level (mouth sensors), thermal state, sleep status, and workload capacity of the soldier.
The Micro-climate Conditioning Subsystem: a network of narrow tubing built into the material of the Life Critical Layer that provides 100 watts of heating or cooling to the soldier.
The Power Subsystem: consists of a 2- to 20-watt Micro Turbine fueled by a liquid hydrocarbon. Ten ounces of fuel, contained in a lightweight plug-in cartridge, powers the soldier for up to 6 days. Polymeric nanofiber battery patches embedded in the headgear and weapon provide back-up power for three hours.
The Weapon Subsystem: permits direct and indirect target engagements. The weapon weighs 5 pounds, and combines five tubes of soft-launched, 15mm intelligent seeker munitions and one tube of stacked 4.6mm kinetic energy projectiles for close quarter combat.
