re: Die Another Day - Check out the switchblade and the PHASST!

"Programmable High Altitude Single Soldier Transport"

"We were employed by the executive producer, Tony Waye and co-producer Callum McDougall to take part in a last minute script change where James Bond And Jinx, leave a Chinook helicopter (ended up in south Korea and fly undetected into north Korea

This was achieved by flying a manually guided single passenger vehicle, called a Switchblade, designed as a rapid and precise insertion glider into hostile territory which employs stealth profile design technology.

Once over the designated landing area both James Bond and Jinx deploy a parachute to complete the insertion to the landing site undetected."
