Personnel & Airdrop Safety Advanced Technology

Abstract

This effort matures and demonstrates parachute materials and designs, precision guidance and navigation software and hardware, tracking sensors, and safety devices to increase the accuracy of delivering cargo to remote locations and/or complex terrains in global positioning system (GPS) denied environments. This effort also provides technologies that increase safety during personnel insertions into theaters of operation. This effort supports capability demonstrations for mitigating the Army' s challenge of overburdened Soldiers through the use of tactical aerial resupply technologies, as well as supporting Anti-Access/Area Denial (A2/ AD) and manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T) operational concepts by demonstrating airdrop from non-traditional platforms.
