In 2000, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), a Pentagon agency best known for helping invent the Internet, radar - evading stealth aircraft, and
pilotless drones, began funding research into exoskeletons that could improve combat performance.

drones —
pilotless military aircrafts that are controlled autonomously by computers or remote pilots.
