AK-47 inventor Kalashnikov unveiled a new bulletproof robot at a recent army fair in Moscow. The gold giant, called “Igorek,” is being compared to the mech suits seen in Avatar and the ED-209 from RoboCop: it can supposedly not only walk, but hold weapons using its giant claws.
While Kalashnikov are remaining tight-lipped on any further details at the moment, Igorek is likely to be used to magnify soldiers' strength while providing protection from military and environmental threats - just like the AMP suits in Avatar.
