Guided Cargo Parachute

Basics

• A Device that attaches to Air Cargo similar to that used for Low-Altitude Parachute-Extraction, but with a steerable Ram-Air Parachute that is controlled by a computer
• Uses GPS, Glonass, or LORAN to Guide it
• Lands in a precise landing area that is pre programmed into it
• Similar to the USA system Joint Precision Airdrop System
• May be desired by various delivery groups for remote drone delivery of buly supplies (ie amazon?)
• Useful When Low-Altitude Parachute-Extraction is needed, but the skills aren't available, or the risk is considered too high
