Swazi tahr is waterproof but too hot for anything more than dawdling along at snail pace.

If you want breathable, look at jackets extremely active outdoors people use. Like climbers. They have similar interests to us, lightweight, packable, waterproof, tough.

You will need to spend a reasonable amount of money for a good jacket. Remember that it's hunting, sometimes you will get wet tired and cold. No amount of money spent on gear will help that sometimes.
Arcteryx, WildThings, Kuiu, Sitka, etc etc.

Bang on.
