|
Current Status Point of Contact |
Project Overview
MINCS(L) AMP058.08 seeks to acquire an Enhanced Static Line Parachute capability to replace the Australian Defence Force's current in-service fleet of static line T10B-D, T10R and MC-1 parachutes.
The Enhanced Static Line Parachute system will comprise separate steerable and non-steerable main canopies integrated with a common harness, pack tray and reserve parachute. The Enhanced Static Line Parachute system is to offer improved performance over the existing in service parachutes, in particular with respect to load carrying capacity and descent rate.
Current Status
MINCS(L) AMP058.08 is an emerging project and not yet approved. DMO is currently assisting the project sponsor with the development of the MINCS(L) and supporting documentation for Second Pass endorsement and Project Approval.
