The suit is the latest project of Russia's Central Research Institute of Precision Engineering (TSNIITOCHMASH), an arm of the Russian defense industry focused on developing small arms and non-lethal military equipment.
Despite the fact that a direct hit would probably blow your limbs off regardless of how sophisticated your flame-retardant underwear may be, the Russian military seems pretty damn pleased with the no-fucks-given swagger of their guinea pig. The officers supervising the trial even gave her some red roses when she successfully completed the dangerous test.
