Individual soldier equipment now covers four major aspects: personal protection, survival support, weapons and equipment, and night vision equipment. Take the load of an army rifleman as an example. In addition to individual weapons, he usually wears three-proof clothing, gloves, and masks against nuclear, biological and chemical weapons, as well as a standard bulletproof vest, a telescope/scope for individual soldiers, and night vision instruments and batteries, etc. He also has to carry a sling-type carrying device on his shoulder. The back frame is made of aluminum alloy and contains bullets, kettles, GPS, PDAs, reconnaissance equipment, biological and chemical weapons detectors, medical first aid kits, etc., and even Have spare underwear. Counting down, there are no less than a hundred types of equipment hung on the back of a soldier. It is difficult to describe it as "armed to the teeth".

Traditional individual soldier equipment is relatively simple, generally including carried weapons, ammunition, clothing and equipment. The load capacity of an individual soldier generally does not exceed 20kg.
Compared with traditional individual soldier equipment, information-based individual soldier equipment has made a qualitative leap in function on the one hand, and on the other hand its own weight is also constantly increasing.
Our army's individual equipment includes the following basic equipment: a nylon fiber mask, night vision goggles, a helmet, a gas mask, a 5.8mm submachine gun and a pistol, and a set of knives.
The system structure of the US military's "Marine Warrior" individual combat system consists of five major parts and more than 20 small and medium-sized components:
The first is the comprehensive helmet system.
It mainly includes helmet cover and suspension device, video intensifier, flat-panel display, earpiece (artificial ear), protective mask, miniature camera, audio-visual and respiratory protection device, etc., with a total weight of 2. 3kg.
The second is the detector, computer and radio system.
The weight of this part of the device is less than 500 grams.
The third is the weapon system.
Including individual self-defense weapons, individual combat weapons and team support weapons, with a total weight of 26.4 kilograms
U.S. Army "Marine Warriors"
. The fourth is a multi-purpose clothing system. Including military uniforms, bulletproof vests, rucksacks, ammunition bags, gloves, combat boots, etc., weighing up to 7.6 kg. The fifth is the microclimate and power plant system. Including micro refrigeration system and power unit, it weighs 4.5 kg.
In this way, the total weight of the complete set of individual soldier equipment systems can reach 42.3 kilograms, which is indeed more than double the traditional individual soldier load capacity standard. It is said that its value is getting higher and higher, mainly because the technical content of individual soldier equipment is getting higher and higher, and the comprehensive application of some new material technologies, optoelectronic technologies, infrared technologies, night vision technologies and information technologies has brought high costs. Therefore, the cost of individual soldier equipment is becoming more and more expensive.
