interesting... not gonna be used for the average airborne soldier though, chutes are meant to drop the soldiers relatively close together w/o thinking thats why they still use the round chutes not the more modern rectangles... as far as i know. Could be pretty cool for James Bond style insertions behind enemy territory.

its tight though. if the armed forces ever wanted to up the recruitment numbers, having cool toys to use would be a great way
