BACKGROUND
With a rich family history in Aviation, former Oil Trader & Royal Marines Reservist, Richard Browning, founded pioneering Aeronautical Innovation company, Gravity Industries in March 2017 to launch human flight into an entirely new era.
The Gravity #JetSuit uses over 1000bhp of Jet Engine power combined with natural human balance to deliver the most intense and enthralling spectacle, often likened to the real life Ironman.
Gravity has to date been experienced by over a billion people globally and covered by virtually every media platform. The Gravity Team, based in the UK, have delivered over 100 flight & Speaking events across 30 countries including 5 TED talks.
“The team and I are delivering on the vision to build Gravity into a world class aeronautical engineering business, challenge perceived boundaries in human aviation, and inspire a generation to dare ask 'what if…”

I really don't think this would be good in front-line active combat, both because of the noise and that you carry a fuel tank on your back. But It can be useful for support staff, maybe engineers behind the font-line, medics, IDK

Extract what? If it's something small like an SSD or laptop then fine, but anything person sized isn't going to fly (literally). Even for search and rescue these things are only good for getting an EMT to the patient so that emergency medical care can be administered ASAP in preparation for a helicopter extraction. Likewise these would be better for assisting such helicopter operations on the ground to prepare the way.

@BridgetKF

The problem I can see, besides the use of arms, is once they're airborne, they're highly vulnerable. Unless it's really, **REALLY** fast, if someone can get a bead on them, they could end up shot before they escape. And, of course, that thing is LOUD. So stealth is going to be a problem. Now, that being said, I could very much see this as a search and rescue vehicle very easily.

I wouldn't bring it for a stealth mission (or if I did, it'd be for the exfiltration phase if it's honestly the best option for the context). Stick to rope for that. I'm just imagining what the Ukraine army could do with this thing if it magically had another 30 years of development in so far as combined arms urban warfare is concerned. I doubt noise is a factor given the backdrop of tanks and artillery. I'm not imagining everyone equipped with these things. Just one team (per the many of other specialists participating in the battle) that knows what they're doing, repositioning as needed as the already noisy battle develops to provide a more mobile overwatch. Even then, it'd just be an option. No reason for it not to be viable however.

Helicopters don't need to land to rescue people, in fact that rarely do. They instead lower a line and an exfil device which you strap into and are pulled up into the helicopter.

I see the main possible use of this is scaling rough terrain/obstacles quickly, such as simply getting on to the roof of a house or onto a short rocky ridge line. Doesn't need to have extended flight time (although the more the better), it just needs to let you basically hop up onto something quickly that you otherwise could not do without ladders, grappling hooks, etc. Also due to the noise it should probably be used only in an active zone where your presence is already known or expected.

If you really want to get into the details of it, these devices do not fulfill any role not already occupied by cheaper, safer, more effective equipment. For the outlined suggestion of rapidly traversing difficult terrain, any crew cabin helicopter or other VTAL will do the job a whole lot better, and you'd know what I mean if you've ever watched the 101st run a practice air assault. And if you're suggesting that they'd need to do that on a patrol, or on the fly in combat, then that's a misunderstanding of how combat and patrolling works. If your team comes across difficult terrain like that and didn't know about it well enough in advance to already be going there in a bird, then you slept through the briefing and have failed as a leader.

Idk if they’ll use AA missiles on them since small arms fire can eliminate the target since there’s no armor, also we don’t know how well the jet packs itself hold up against small arms fire. I’d imagine even a 9mm will pose a danger to its structural integrity. Plus how difficult is it to repair? If you need extra chips and boards and wires on you at all times for repairs then… it adds extra weight onto the soldier which makes it very dangerous. But as technology improves who knows, maybe this is the first step of military jet pack usage. But then again in WW2 they have already done personal helicopters and others along those lines, conventional way to carry troops offers the most protection for our troops so far. So we can all hope it’ll get used, but I know what we all hope for are our soldiers coming home safe

Like parachuting and helicopters. This is a big hunk of junk on your back. It's really heavy, bulky and noisy. Soldiers land and then they have to carry this thing around for a good hour or so. You can't just "leave it" because it'll probably be stolen by enemies or destroyed and it's too expensive. You have to carry huge load the entire time (it also limits how much weapons and ammo you can carry). It can probably be effective in the navy, in some short range scouting or when they need to quickly board another boat/ship.

Plus you don't have to worry about terrain or chokepoints if you can just gly over them or flank them from behind. The pinnacle of this tech will most likely be achieved when it is upgraded to be hands free. Additionally, troops can theoretically deploy from airplanes without parachutes or fly deep behind enemy lines for insertion.

This may work for some really niche operations for a short time. The problem is, that all near peers are working on cheap to use anti drone kinetic systems. Their lethality would transfer well to a man in a jetsuit, with comporable engagement speeds and altitudes likely.........in fact it would be eaiser due to the larger target size and huge IR signature. Ergo it doubles your risk of being injured or dying as suddenly as falling from height becomes a major risk in addition to being shot at. It's so cool! but needs to come on some way, maybe BAE et al. will pick it up and take it further.

Interesting and liking the development, many people raise noise concerns but it must be kept in mind that tanks, helicopters, apcs etc are also pretty noisy but they get the job done when used in their correct roles. I can see that if they opt to develop it further the jetpacks can have uses, for example I think they could be useful in scaling rocky mountainous terrain, say like quickly getting troops into blocking/vantage points during ongoing battle, where noise is not a concern and rather speed of maneuverability to outflank enemies is of vital importance. Sure drones can do a lot of tasks but when you have situations where you need boots on the ground these may come in handy.

As long as you were never jetting into hostile situations it could be useful. A squad of men could conceivably move more rapidly, or up steep surfaces, or over water.

Nostalgia and sentimentality. Those are the ONLY practical reasons for this ill-considered contraption. My guess is he books speaking engagements behind this thing and gives the standard "never give up on your dreams" speech. Of course, this guy's dream is essentially useless in this configuration. Design is a reiterative process of killing one's darlings. This should've been scrapped long ago and a new design addressing its shortcoming should've been pursued. Instead he's given up, and going after the engagement money.

The main problem with mountain warfare is the amount of other kit you'd have to carry. In mountain ops you're typically restricted to what you can carry on your back, it's pretty difficult for logistical trucks and similar to follow you into a mountainous environment. You could utilize this jetpack in mountain ops, but to the detriment of everything else you wouldn't be able to carry.

Ammo is heavy. Plus this thing already takes up a lot of space plus the hands. Adding any more weight to this would probably not work too well. Even more difficult would be moving wounded. That's a lot of weight, plus you have two men who can't use their arms. They would need some kind of sling to carry a wounded person, and also have to be skilled enough to not mess up and drop the person or crash into the ground themself.
