Chellian scientists have begun working on carrier-bourne Pulse-jet gliders. These would be fairly large, with folding wings(so they could fit in/on the carrier). About 50 men fit into each, including a trooper/pilot, and a spotter(on the bottom, high power lense to tell when they are over their target). In theory, carrying a large number of these would be perfect for getting troops behind the lines, as these would be disposable, they would be hard for SAM's to track if they turn off the engine, and they would have an opening back, that one could use to quickly leave the plane if it glided to the ground, or jump out of if paradropping. These are suspected to be used for the newly created SAS forces of the chellians. More info as it comes.
