The report presents the results of an in-depth exploratory study of the Parachute Retrorocket Airdrop System to determine its potential for meeting the technical, economic and operational requirements of an airdrop system capable of delivering supplies and equipment weighing from 2000 to 35,000 pounds from cargo aircraft flying at an altitude of 500 feet or less above the terrain. Actual airdrops were conducted to demonstrate system capability for loads weighing up to 35,000 pounds from low altitudes. (Author)
