Episode Description

The COMBAT BOOTS: For the soldier, the army boot is more than protective footwear. From the parade ground to the battlefield, the boot is a symbol of discipline and determination that marches the soldier right through his military career.

Capable of steering itself through the air over long distances, the Sherpa can autonomously transport provisions and supplies for a precisely targeted landing within a hundred meters of the intended drop zone. And the parafoil is what makes the Sherpa fly. It’s made from double layers of super strong parachute material called ripstop nylon; which prevents tearing at high speeds and low temperatures.

And not only can they fly, they can get there on their own.The PISTOL: Bits of steel and spring and coated plastic will pack into a pistol that’s one of the most popular and widely copied side a
