On the day a Rock Viper class graduates from the training program, candidates are dropped from helicopters onto the top of a 500', sheer-sided mesa rock formation. They are outfitted with 250' of rope and informed that only 50% will graduate upon completion of the this final test. Because of their intense training, Rock Vipers scramble up a mountain crag as easily as strolling across a deserted street. And they do it so stealthily with the Pythonizing Process* that it's almost impossible to detect their movements. Encased in a non-slip, camo-traction suit, outfitted with specialized Cobra combat boots, and equipped with rocket-assisted, tungsten steel grappling hook and
megatensile-strength repelling rope, the Rock-Viper trooper can scale any obstacle to deliver an obliterating barrage of firepower from his missile pack and automatic grenade launcher.
*A process in which personnel and/or vehicles are outfitted with a primary layer of radar-resistant black-ball paint, then blanketed with a thermal-wave dispersal grid. |
