Salticid Powered Exoskeleton

This is the Salticid light-weight powered exoskeleton armored suit. Mainly designed for agility over strenght, it is mainly worn by fast-striking assault squads, the strengthened legs allow for fast mobility as well as for jumping several meters up into the air to catch the foe off guard or as a mean to escape. Both hands are free and mobile and can use multiple types of hand-carried weapons, and an extra set of neuro-controlled lower arms are incorporated into the design to allow grappling and climbing when jumping as well as being formidable close-quarter-combat weapons. When not in use, the extra pair of arms can be rotated backwards 180 degrees, to not be n the way for daily tasks such as grabbing a cup o' joe. The helmet is armed with a small pair of lasers capable of penetrating thick armor plating and melt flesh.

In this design I tried to incorporate a spider-ish design, I was mainly inspired by the jumping spiders (family Salticidae and Metal Gear Solid. I wanted to create something that could resemble a finished piece of concept-art that came out of a game studio.
