As mentioned in the comments of this question, on a quasiprojective scheme over a field, every perfect complex is globally a complex of vector bundles.
I have some question about the extension of this to stacks:
- Is this true $G$ equivariantly? i.e. is it true for $X/G$ where $X$ is quasiprojective?
- As a slight extension of this, is this true for $\text{Bun}_G(X)$ where $X$ is a curve?
(and 3. it would be nice to have a modern reference to the original question about quasiprojective schemes, which I've not actually been able to find yet).
