The test occurred during a recent NATO exercise in Slovenia.
The Gravity Industries Jet Suit can travel up to 5 km (3 miles) in the air, moving at a speed of 80 km/h (50 mph). It has five gas turbine engines with a combined power of 1050 hp. As a result, the pilot can reach about 3.7 km (2.3 miles) above the ground.
The compact and functional device can be used for military and civilian purposes, like rescue operations. The Gravity Industries Jet Suit creator, Richard Browning, had the honor of testing it out. During the mission, Browning delivered a container of blood plasma to the designated location.
The test passed successfully, and the "patient" was effectively "rescued." The route passed over a mountain road for safety reasons. Thankfully, no emergency stops were needed.
