Not gonna lie, I'd rather attack with 26 fighters that haven't survived lots of jump attempts than 8 who are much more confident in their motorbike stunt riding but presumably still aren't bulletproof.

But maybe they could ask Claude how to train themselves to resist bullets as well?

This is a scene in Catch22 IIRC where they decide to stop training the soldiers who need to parachute behind enemy lines because the fatality rate of training was so high that mathematically it made more sense to send in untrained soldiers.

“unfortunately, my seven remaining comrades died in the process and I can't train anymore since there's no one to shoot at me”.

Well that’s easy, start shooting yourself in the foot with .22 until you develop a tolerance and bump up to .380!
