The T-10 series troop back personnel parachutes are designed to safely deliver airborne soldiers and their equipment from an aircraft for vertical assaults on enemy positions. This series includes the T-10B, T-10C, and T-10D models, each with unique enhancements to improve reliability and functionality.

​

T-10B PARACHUTE:

The T-10B model enhances the basic canopy with the addition of an anti-inversion net, improving the reliability of the already dependable T-10 parachute. Many existing canopies have been retrofitted with this netting to extend their service life and performance.

​

T-10C PARACHUTE:

The T-10C model builds on the T-10B with further improvements:

• Increased pocket band free length and decreased pocket depth reduce opening shock and provide a softer landing.

• The larger diameter at the skirt hem results in a lower descent rate.

• All T-10B canopies in service have been upgraded to this new configuration.

​

T-10D PARACHUTE:

The T-10D model offers the following advancements:

• Detachable deployment bag with a universal static line that can be adjusted to 15’ or 20’ depending on the aircraft type (e.g., C-130, C-17).

• Pocket bands lengthened to 11.75” for a more positive opening.

• Increased overall canopy size by 4.37 feet to reduce descent rate to about 15 feet per second.

• Improved harness and pack with longer shoulder pads, a saddle cushion for added comfort, and an added yoke flap for better handling.

• Fluorocarbon-treated suspension and vent lines to protect against dirt and grit, increasing service life.

​

• 9 Cell all ZP Canopy

• Avaiable in size 118, 138, 155, 170, 190
