In military operations, HALO is used for delivering equipment, supplies, or personnel, while HAHO is generally used only for personnel. In typical HALO/HAHO insertions the troops jump from altitudes between 15,000 feet (4,600 m) and 35,000 feet (11,000 m) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-altitude_military_parachuting |

jakeporeshenko:This is more or less hearsay without proof. What we know is that NNSBS are in Pakistan to train. You and I don't know what they are training for. It could be for the anything. Or they might be sent in to train in batches. i.e some haven't actually conducted any jumps prior to going to Pak**** But you just CONCLUDED that they went to Pakistan for HALO training without proof. Understand that YOU ARE THE ONE MAKING THE CLAIMS WITHOUT PROOF AND NOT THE OTHER WAY ROUND. Maybe you're the one who needs the thinking cap on. 2 Likes |

What is a HALO jump? A military-style, High Altitude, Low Open parachute jump. At 30,000 feet, the temperature is somewhere around 25 to 35 degrees below zero. Without oxygen, you can expect to be usefully conscious about 30 seconds. ...... Note the Oxygen gear required for a HALO jump. 3 Likes

Well as Lionel put it hearsay isn't much proof but you said you are putting your reputation on the line and the fact you're not Henry or Covert so you actually still have one, I am open to the fact that you might have qualified men in your military.....however without proof I still can't say for sure that your Military has unit that is fully HAHO/HALO capable....seem fair to you?? 2 Likes |

Odunayaw: I think the thing is that we are talking about "units" qualified for HAHO/HALO and the domestic capacity to train units in HAHO/HALO No doubt there are a number of your operators who received such qualifications while training abroad. |
