All Tactical parachute canopies have their origins in sport parachutes. Our Tactical parachute canopies are based on the Jalbert PARAFOIL and NAA EAGLE main and reserve canopies. The Jalbert PARAFOIL is legendary. The attributes that make it a great accuracy canopy are also essential in a Tactical parachute.

3 Drogue Activated System (DAS) is designed for use from A/C with airspeed up to 218 mph (350 km/h) DAS consists of: MIRPS Reserve Parachute System NSN Assembly Part Number The Modified Improved Reserve Parachute System (MIRPS) is designed to be manually activated by means of a ripcord in the event of a main parachute malfunction. It provides secondary lift capability to safely deliver an airborne soldier and individual equipment from an aircraft in flight for a vertical assault on an enemy. MIRPS includes a standard T-10 reserve parachute canopy assembly, integrated with a commercial deployment assistance device composed of a bridle line, pilot chute, and spring. The pack tray includes a line bag for stowing suspension lines and an inner staging flap that holds the reserve parachute until the necessary tension is achieved through the bridle/pilot chute assembly during deployment. The MIRPS pack tray is slightly larger than that of the T-10 reserve pack tray so it can accommodate a larger pilot chute, spring, and bridle.
