MortiS-the-Lost i have the Answer for you!

I know you know Roge Trader, than you know sure that are jets on both sides.
In new publications (in german) is told thart the Oxygen arrester  and/or  Termal arresters
This is bullshit.
We can see here:

And here we seen is was posible to update the jets from backpack to a "Flight Pack"

In german is the Flight Pack called "Sprung Modul" (thats badly soudns like Jump Pack)
The old Flight Pack have 3 Jets on both sides and 1 Antigraph engline.
In the newes Version is only one open hole to seen but this have to conzentrate the Radiance.
But inside the 3 Jets exsist too.

The Imperial Space Marine can fly 4 Zoll.
By Chaos we mut look now to the old Chaos Backpacks:

This Backpack have 4 Jets.
the big Jet made +2 Zoll Move and the little Jets +1 Move
Wathc the picture we have 2 big and down 2 little jets.
2 +2 = 4 +1 = 5 +1 = 6 Zoll

Flyghtpack:
2+2+2 +2+2+2 = 12 Zoll
2nd ED. 40k = 12 vertical  (18 horizontal also gives the Atigraph Engine a bonus of +6)

The Chaos Back Pack with 2 Jets of each Side ( = 4 jets) are called "Jump Pack"


In the End of Grat Crusade the Legion Exmperimental with Jump and Flight packs.
The New Chaos Jump Packs are different the power from the little Jet go now into the Great one!
