BigDog has been improved. It now carries 340 lbs. on ice, through snow, over obstacles, and can even jump over things.

BigDog just got a job with the US Marines.

It looks like they want a version that can carry 400 pounds of cargo, and travel 20 miles without refueling. And, I'd imagine, one that's a little less noisy.
