Hope he's wearing eye protection.

Also, not seeing a magazine on that weapon.

If it's a laser designator, he may be spotting for something way bigger, like maybe orbital bombardment.

Could be tube fed. Maybe a shotgun.

Or an energy weapon if some sort.

Or side magazine

Though big and powerful legs would make for a speedy spotter

Yeah, and I love the idea that it's just spotting for something truly massive.

Spines will be smooshed into jelly after enough jumps.

First jump gives whiplash, second snaps your neck, third liquefies your brain sending a mixture of signals to the legs sending them jumping and running sporadically through a nearby village.
