Video Royal Navy flying Iron Man-style jet suits storming enemy ships

This amazing video shows the Royal Navy using flying Iron Man-style jet suits as they practice storming enemy ships. It's like something out of a Hollywood blockbuster,

IF.. you're going to be storming ships with terrorist on board, you'd better make sure those jet nozzles are stealth and you'd better figure out a way to hang onto said nozzles, so you can deploy your "armament", because, I think you're going to have to have it deployed before you board that ship. But, what the F do I know, I flew in, dropped the troops/material and got the F outta there! Still kinda cool tho! Mac

Well, today’s method is scoot up with everyone piled in a little rubber bastard boat and climb over the side, or fast rope everyone, one at a time from a hovering helicopter.

This may expose and individual, certainly, but no more than modern mechanisms. It adds diversity of approach, speed, shock factor and disaggregates assault element from cover element.

..and... during this drill... there are not two gun ships with now open bays for precision riflemen and 240 or mini gun door gunners laying hate without the demand or distraction of troops trying to unass the bird.

it could be turned into a significant advantage.

of course, if they added some frickin’ lasers and shit to the jet packs it would be cool too...,
