'''Astartes [[Grav Chute]]s''' are used on the occasions when [[Space Marine]] [[Scout Squad]]s must deploy stealthily and are unable to utilise more common methods like [[teleportation]] or [[drop pods]]. Grav chutes rely on suspensor fields to counter gravity and slow descent. Unlike a [[jump pack]], which allows the user to leap into the air, a grav chute’s lower power output only allows for a safe, guided fall such as a combat drop from a transport.{{Fn|1}}
