According to TASS (oh shit, here it goes), the Russians Army expect to have exoskeletons controlled by the power of the mind in 5 years

“I think that in about five years we will get a neural interface to control exoskeletons and prostheses,” said Alexander Kulish, who is in charge with the designing and production of medical equipment.

He said that such exoskeletons would help soldiers carry loads of up to 200-300 kilograms and “make incredible jumps, move and throw heavy objects.”
