On Page 143 of the 2019 Space Marine Codex, it says that “Every model may have a jump pack...it has a Move characteristic of 12, gains certain keywords, etc.”

So does this mean Jump Packs are now optional for Assault Squads?

INSANE army lists still available!!!! Now being written in 8th edition format! I have Index Imperium 1, Index Imperium 2, Index Xenos 2, Codex Orks Codex Tyranids, Codex Blood Angels and Codex Space Marines!

Yes, and as far as I can remember, you could always take Assault squads w/o packs.

Blood Angels used to get free drop pods when you did.

When weren't the jump packs optional?

I mean, there's a reason why the Assault Marine box includes both the jump packs and the regular packs. Some editions you want to be able to drive over to where you punch a dude.

They always have been optional from the start of 8th.
