The individual equipment of the US military now covers four aspects: personal protection, survival support, weapons and equipment, and night vision equipment. Take the loading capacity of American army riflemen as an example. In addition to individual weapons, he usually wears three-proof clothing, gloves and masks for nuclear and biochemical protection, as well as standard body armor, binoculars/sights for individual soldiers, night vision goggles and batteries. He also carries a sling-type vehicle on his shoulder, and the back frame is made of aluminum alloy, which contains bullets, kettles, GPS, PDA, reconnaissance equipment, biochemical weapon detectors and medical aid. By memorizing it, a soldier is equipped with more than 100 kinds, which is hard to describe as "armed to the teeth". ?
According to the current 1996 version of American soldiers' load standard, the load of American soldiers has doubled compared with that of World War II. Many individual equipment of the US military is multifunctional. The Kevlar helmet worn by the US military can not only resist the attack of bullets and shrapnel, but also become the "second brain" of soldiers. At present, the helmet worn by the US Marine Corps in Iraq contains the next micro radio equipment, a microphone and a pair of headphones, which is convenient for soldiers to contact their comrades-in-arms and commanders. The radar device on the top of the helmet will report the exact position of the soldiers. The military boots worn by American soldiers are no small matter. The desert combat boots equipped by the US troops stationed in Iraq contain 15 kinds of new inventions and technologies, which not only have strong sweat absorption, but also have good air permeability. Even the nail array set up by Iraqi anti-American armed forces can't help the US military's desert boots. Even the diaper underwear produced by Johnson & Johnson Company in the United States for the US military has a miraculous effect. Because the sand in the Iraqi desert is as fine as talcum powder, American soldiers stationed in Iraq put urine-blocking underwear on the muzzle to prevent these tiny sand from blocking the barrel. ?
In addition, American soldiers entering the information age are covered with various sensor materials. Motorola provided a microcomputer for American soldiers and even put a small mouse on the belt of military uniform. In this way, computers, communications and other technologies will become the most common weapons worn by soldiers on the waist, back, shoulders and head. These devices connect soldiers directly with the superior command and communication system. (Yan Lei)?

During the Gulf War:
199 1 us army single soldier carries a detailed analysis of the loading capacity during the gulf war, so that everyone can see what the real American soldiers have in their backpacks! ? Of course, due to the experience and lessons of 199 1 war, the US military revised the individual load-bearing standard in 1996. The equipment of soldiers now is somewhat different from that of that year, but the carrying load of individual soldiers is not like tanks and planes, and the lifting space is limited. Therefore, the standard of that year can still be used as a good reference for the burden of American soldiers now! ?
American standard personal harness is a kind of shoulder strap. Nylon material does not absorb water and will not gain weight due to rain or immersion. The whole set of carrying tools consists of outer belt, shoulder strap, shoulder pad, shovel cover (plastic), bullet bag, kettle cover, spare bag and back frame made of aluminum alloy. ?
The U.S. military divides the individual soldier's load into combat load and marching load, and holds that the standard combat load in all seasons and regions should not exceed 18 kg, and the marching load should be less than 25 kg. But in 199 1 year, the actual situation was exceeded! Now, taking the load of American infantry as an example, the specific analysis is as follows:

As can be seen from the above data, in fact, the load of American infantry is mainly conventional, and the above data is only standard data. In fact, it is rare to bring only one meal of rations in combat, ammunition should exceed the standard value, and the carrying capacity of desert combat water should also be increased. In addition, there are AT-4 anti-tank rocket launchers and other equipment, as well as anti-nuclear, biochemical and three-proof clothing, gloves and masks, as well as standard bulletproof vests, binoculars/sights for individual soldiers, night vision goggles and batteries. , will bear, American soldiers load will be much higher than the standard value. As for GPS, PDA, radio, reconnaissance equipment, etc. It is mainly equipped by platoon tactical units, so there is no need for a set of people.
