Hollywood to design US Army Iron Man suit

Hollywood: After the global success of Iron Man, the US military has decided to embark on a quest to bring superhero powers to soldiers deployed on the battlefield. Codenamed ‘Talos’, the suit will allow infantry to see in the dark, deflect bullets and have superhuman strength. It will require significant power to give soldiers the kind of abilities Robert Downey Jr displayed in the film, filmindustrynetwork.com reported.

According to WSJ, the development of the Iron Man suit is being led by Legacy Effects, a special effects company that worked on the Iron Man franchise, as also The Terminator and other movies.
