mr2mk1g 10 #4 June 2, 2006 It weighs 66lb. We can guess at the other weights: SF soldier… probably about 225lb. O2 system and helmet maybe another 40lb?? Clothes, boots and sundries 20lb So weight before the rig or any weapons and equipment is in excess of 350lb and he's probably gonna be landing at night onto unknown terrain in hostile territory. I know I'd want a big-ass tandem rig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bolas 5 #11 April 24, 2008 Quote It weighs only 30 pounds and can be fully weaponized for assault Wingsuits with weapons? Suddenly competitive flocking just took on a whole new meaning. "Cut me off mother fucker? Fire the rockets!!!" Sounds incredibly dangerous, insanely stupid, totally idiotic, but also a fuckload of fun. Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
