@Stu_Lyle Modern materials like dyneema would make them really lightweight now

Agreed on an individual level, but toggle ropes were always a distributed section/Platoon asset. Each soldier's rope wasn't the capability, but it contributed to the capability. They could still be used to quickly haul soldiers/equipment upwards or lower them down. Bridging gaps or pulling obstacles, too. A modern toggle rope wouldn't be a bad idea at all. Especially as the British Army seems to struggle with simple items like ladders.

Imagine how hard this would be with today's infantry load
