And now countries have exoskeleton suits that allow a soldier to run fast, farther and lift more than anyone ever could using muscle. It would be a lot harder to hit 10 soldiers individually than if they all rode in the same APC.

(If there’s no war the suits are still useful, for instance in warehouse operations. Workers could lift hundred pound packages all day without fatigue)

Um, no.

Any such thing is experimental. Awkward, cumbersome, high and rapid energy drain, good for a few minutes at best. Looks great in movies, but that where they are best - in CGI of blue/green screen.

Mostly we call those suits tanks and APCs.
