A foot-launched military paraglider system that can covertly deploy soldiers into hostile territories has been developed by a U.K. start-up.
Blakcro’s glider was designed primarily for military use and can be transported in a rucksack-sized case and assembled in under eight minutes. The glider is intended to support covert missions by minimizing acoustic, visual and radar signatures during flight.

With a titanium airframe and a powered range of up to 200 miles, the glider can carry military equipment including body armor and night-vision systems, along with weapon mounts.
