>He's gained a reputation as the 'real-life Iron Man', thanks to his futuristic jet suit. Now British engineer, Richard Browning, is on a mission to bring jet packs to the military. His futuristic jet suit uses five gas turbines to reach heights of up to 20 feet (six metres) at impressive speeds of up to 85 mph. He's struck a deal with two western allies to equip militaries with the gizmo, allowing armed commandos to soar over warzones and land on enemy ships.

Make it so you can use the drone for transit to a location then use the suit to launch from the drone.

It's not very practical but it would probably be pretty damn fun. It's like a temu Space marine in a drop pod.

Yeah, kind of what I was thinking. You don't even need a fatal hit, that shit will go up like a firecracker if you hit a fuel line.

Flying up to let down a rope is pretty handy, but if it's only 20 feet it's not worth carrying around. Get working on the Tesla power source.
