Various types of research have been conducted to assist in the development of soldiers in the military by providing them with exoskeleton suits that can provide extra strength, reduce fatigue, and provide protection. The main aim of the research is to develop a light-weight and increased strength exoskeleton. This paper reviews the researches of the current trends and advancements of exoskeletons in various fields, and how they can be incorporated with military purpose. The tests were conducted separately for the upper limb and lower limb suits. The upper limb exoskeletons were tested by performing overhead tasks with and without suit in both active and passive state. In the same way, lower limb exoskeletons were tested by performing lower body exercise and walking with and without suits by carrying weights. The results from different studies revealed a significant reduction in muscle activity on wearing an exoskeleton suit. These exoskeleton suits can be implemented to assist humans/soldiers in difficult tasks, which may require additional strength, consequently saving time and energy. So far only the upper and lower extremity suits have been developed. An entire body suit may demand more resources and capital. Exoskeletons will have their significance in the military, not only for domestic purposes but also during battlefield and crises.
