Can you think of any modern-day special ops application where the use of gliders might make sense? Or is that like saying we should bring back the flintlock? I've always been impressed by the gliders capability--in spite of the risks--of bringing a fully equipped fighting force directly onto the objective silently, with no need to shed parachutes or form up prior to attack.
I suspect the risks outweigh the possible benefits but I'd be interested to hear some thoughts.
