Sustainment Aerial Delivery Equipment - Sling Load (SADE-SL)

Abstract

SADE-SL consists of four components (Payload Stabilization, Enhanced Speed Bag, Low-Cost Cargo Net, and Low-Cost Sling Sets) which provide options for the Soldiers to provide distributed supply and sustainment support. The two low-cost components (low-cost slings sets, low-cost cargo nets) reduce the overall cost of sling load equipment and the burden of intra-theatre recovery. The other two components allow for improved flight safety in the form of increased air speed by 10%-20% (Payload Stabilization Device) and decreasing hovering time to 14 seconds from time on target (Enhanced Speed Bags).
