BigDog!
The military has invested in Boston Dynamics to create a robotic packmule for troops in the field. What they came up with is amazing. (Though a little loud for combat operations...)

P.S.- I think someone posted the climbing robot that Boston Dynamics has a while ago. All the stuff is awesome.
