I know Iridium armor changes the jump jet move in assault phase from 6" to D6, but what happens if the unit assaults another unit instead of just moving? Does it revert to 6" normal movement to the enemy unit or do I roll D6 to see how far? Obviously, assume that the battlesuit unit initiating the assault is within 6" of the assault target. (edit)

Assault =/= assault jump.

The jump jet movement is different to actually assaulting an enemy unit.

If you choose in the assault phase to do the jump you are forgoing the ability to assault, assault is still the normal 6" range as it is charging/running into the fight.

Seriphis is 100% right

Only the assault jump is D6. Assaulting remains the same.
