Among the events was a demonstration of the Royal Navy’s flying jet pack suits, which were created by Gravity Industries.

Looks like it’s AI generated
Red Alert 2 Rocketeer: "I can go anywhere!"
Not sure what kind of operation these things would be useful for.
They fly now
One slightly too sharp turn and its over
"So, you up for a Jetpack Joyride?"
-new exclusive quote from Jetpack Joyride movie
Useless flying ducks
This is why we don’t get health care in the USA
I’m pretty certain that this is just for propaganda purposes. These systems are too loud to covertly infil and have the operators need to go through significant de-kit before they can be combat ready. The use cases are far too limited for this to be sucking up defence budget.
Handy
Absolute creative team
Green safe screen

Remember in the 80's when everyone figured out those super expensive russian helicopters were super vulnerable to cheap RPG's…this is that but for humans
These are now being used for things like mountian rescue and sending paramedics up mountains, etc.
A jetpack
ROCKETMAN + KJKSZPJ = TEC9
Why us t the water splashing or leaving g tria of wakes
This is Realife call of duty
Totally AI generated!! No exhaust. No rippling water under them.
Kalau jetnya senyap minim suara si ini bagus, tp kalau bising ya ketahuan, masa iya perlu pengalih perhatian dr suaranya yg bising, tp klo senyap akan jadi teknologi berguna sekali di militer
Now I’ll never forget this 😅
Could women do this
red alert
If only they put on Harry Potters cloak to go into battle 👍
Perfect example of spending money on the wrong thing 😂😂😂
This is so fake, it's not even funny

Me going to go see what my friend made in creative mode
It’s really cool! ❤
Glad my tax money isn’t going to my community at all but I can watch a guy fly over the ocean while smiling
Video is a few years old..
Is this where the stolen taxpayer money is going?
This isn’t a RN project. This dude has been trying to convince military around the world to buy these. He has even tried to sell to individuals. The issues are the same as always. The things don’t hold enough fuel and thus the range is quite limited. It’s interesting. It’s impractical. Though I imagine he has sold a few that may have single use special ops potential. It’s just not something you will see anyplace other than air shows, movies, or on promotional YouTube videos until someone invents a Tony stark style power unit. If you are old enough like me you will remember the back pack version of this from the 1970s. It was never more than a side show item. Nothing has changed.
The original was similarly useless and never went anywhere Google Bell Aerospace's Rocket Belt, developed for the U.S. military in the early 1960s.
