Jet suit developer Gravity Industries has joined forces with the Royal Marines to test how their product can assist in Maritime Boarding Operations.

A Royal Marine tested a jet suit over water and landed on HMS Tamar off the south coast of the UK.

The jet suit has previously been tested by paramedics in the Lake District.

A video handout out from Gravity Industries showed a Maritime Boarding Operation exercise where a fast rib boat is coming alongside a moving high-sided ship and hooking a caving ladder to permit assaulting personnel access.
