That looks like a fun opportunity for target shooting them as they try to land on ships.

From this old Infantry Sergeant’s view, very limited battle field use, or what we would have called a toy.

The special forces paratrooper of the future. They will probably carry only an emergency chute which is rocket-deployed so it will be effective at very low altitude.
The main user of these things may turn out to be combat robots, which will be able to quickly disengage the propulsion units on landing and re-engage later for exfiltration. Or the propulsion units could be programmed to “return to home” on their own if the combat robots are to be fully expended.
