Land Warrior is an American rearmament project for platoon servicemen using high-tech integration of tactical weapons with communications, navigation and command and control equipment. The project was canceled in 2007 [1] [2] , but was resumed in 2008 [3] .
Although manufacturability is one of the most important areas for the development of the US armed forces, in fact, it was revealed that infantry soldiers had little sense of the results of this policy, although infantry was gaining increasing importance due to the growing importance of urban war in conflicts involving United States. The Land Warrior program was entrusted with the task of filling the gap in equipping infantrymen with modern technologies in the short term.
The limited resources, as well as the excessive weight of the kit, caused the project to be phased out in February 2007, but later resumed in July 2007 . Despite the cancellation of the system in this half-year, the 4th brigade of the 2nd Raiders Infantry Division , trained in the use of drugs earlier, was nevertheless sent to Iraq, where it used this equipment.

Land Warrior technologies should be used in the future soldier's future program - Future Force Warrior .
