The leopard crawl is very very slow, but very very quiet. In a hot forest with unknown enemies present, even normal infantry would tend to move "cautiously" and try to be quiet. But even then, maximum stealth is unlikely because it is S-L-O-W-E-R than molasses. But if you *know* the enemy sentry is just 10m ahead through the foliage, your approach (if you want a silent takedown) is the stealthiest method you can employ, despite the pace.
