@doyouevengunbro: This footage shows a military vehicle being air-dropped from a C-17 Globemaster, one of the most impressive logistics capabilities used by modern armed forces. The process starts before the vehicle ever leaves the aircraft. A small drogue parachute deploys first, creating enough drag to pull the load toward and out of the cargo ramp. Once clear of the aircraft, a series of larger parachutes opens to stabilize the vehicle and control its descent. Considering the weight involved, the landing is just as important as the drop itself. Vehicles are typically secured to specialized platforms that use energy-absorbing materials, including cardboard honeycomb structures, to help cushion the impact when they hit the ground. #aviation #c17 #airdrop #usa #usa🇺🇸
