For some criminals fleeing a crime scene, the sight of a policeman with a jetpack flying towards them may be the latter. Recently, one of the British police units checked the real value of a policeman with a jetpack.
The command in Great Britain checked the cop with a jetpack in action
For a long time, this type of action has regularly raised questions as to whether a jetpack has any combat value when it generates enormous noise, restricts the user’s movement, occupies his hands and risks his life through a flammable aviation fuel tank. However, the UK has long been investigating the issue with Gravity, which is wholly responsible for this jetpack with jet engines on the user’s hands.

Above you can see how a policeman with a jetpack would perform in the action of chasing a criminal, although it is worth noting that the “policeman” himself is the founder and test pilot of the said company. Hence the finesse and certainty of the flight, because we imagine that such flying is not easy.

At the show, a policeman with a jetpack is of course perfect. She overtakes the fugitive, stands in his way and, right after landing, begins to take care of her safety, reaching for the pistol. What is the most striking? It lacks high dynamics and is one of the most important cuts that occurs between landing and reaching for the weapon. Why is it not shown how smoothly the process of pulling hands out of jet engine casings is?
We can guess this. It is worth noting that, in theory, a policeman with a jetpack, although he did not show this to the criminal to the accompaniment of the deafening work of five engines, could accelerate up to 88 km / h. However, there is no need to count on long flights – at the moment, the Gravity backpack provides 5 to 10 minutes on a single refueling.
