Our personnel parachute systems are used by all branches of the U.S. military as well as international allied forces. These advanced systems routinely exceed military specifications and perform beyond expectations.our own fabrics and hardware, to testing, training and documentation, our commitment to the highest level of quality, our training and maintenance, and the expertise of our people are what set Airborne Systems apart.

Personnel Parachute Systems

High-Performance Ram Air Parachute Systems  (6)


Gemini Tandem

Combines high carrying capacity with exceptional flight performance and unique glide modulation capability
  • Attachment of the drogue in the middle of the container between the main and reserve compartment, ensuring a flat and comfortable position for the jumper under drogue
  • Container Out-Of-Sequence-Deployment Security protection against out of sequence deployments where the main deployment bag becomes free from the main container during droguefall
  • Unique dual-stage drogue collapse ensures a smooth pull of the deployment bag out of its container, reducing the snatch force and eliminating the trap-door effect at drogue release
  • Oxygen attachment points on main and passenger harness

Intruder System (RA-1)

The Intruder system was type classified as the RA-1 by the U.S. Army and suitable for HALO/HAHO missions

Suited for a novice in need of docile performance or an experienced pilot who demands performance extremes for mission success.

  • Intended for use during HALO or HAHO missions, the Intruder 360 main canopy incorporates a design developed by Airborne Systems that improves velocity and glide.
  • Pressurized stabilizers increase glide performance and improve performance in deep brakes by forcing the canopy to track forward without lateral slip. The pressurized stabilizers also render the canopy completely silent.

Hi-5

Intended for use during HALO or HAHO missions

The Hi-5® is truly one of a kind, not only does it have exceptional ram air glide performance, but it also has the ability to lose altitude quickly similar to a troop parachute. In order to achieve this, our engineers designed our patent pending Glide Modulation System.

  • A higher All Up Weight (AUW) of 485lbs on both the main and reserve
  • A greater glide ratio of 5:1
  • A docile & safe canopy
  • A silent canopy
