In ZVO, special forces work out skydiving with a delayed opening of the dome

The press service of the Western Military District reports that the fighters of the special purpose brigade ZVO have begun to perform parachute jumps with certain conditions. Army Special Forces performs jumps from different heights both in daytime and at night, using the technology of delaying the opening of the parachute dome. At the same time, skills of landing brigade servicemen on difficult terrain, including those covered with dense forest, are practiced.

From the message press service ZVO:

The parachute training program provides for the performance of D-6 and D-10 parachute jumps from a height of 600-900 m, as well as 1200-1400 m with a delayed opening of the dome. In addition, military personnel will be taught how to load weapons and military equipment on board the aircraft, as well as weapons and equipment for landing in full gear. Before embarking on the jumps, the special forces fighters underwent a training course at the airborne complex, during which they mastered the skills of laying parachutes and performed special exercises for landing safety.

It is noted that as part of training in the Pskov region will be held over 2 thousands of parachute jumps.

For reference: the parachute D-10 was adopted by the Airborne Forces about 20 years ago. Allows you to jump at ejection speeds from 140 to 400 km / h with stabilization to 3 s (device AD-LSUD) and more 3 s (device PPK-U). A jump using D-10 can be made from a height of up to 4 km. Withstands up to 120 applications.

and if it doesn’t work on time?

Then shmyak, you won’t be afraid for a long time.

The good news is that our paratroopers train in quite extreme conditions, which will give them the opportunity to gain great experience in jumping, which in a military situation will help them save their lives.

What won't work? The device? Then - with pens! In general, in the SA for a jump "on the device", that is, when the lock opens the device, it was possible to get below the back with a ring rope When they actually jump to the delay, a block with a stopwatch and an altimeter is attached to the spare (at least, we had it), you look at them and when necessary, you pull the ring itself.

It turns out that landing with a higher altitude with a delay allows you to do it more safely. The paratrooper will be less under enemy fire and the transporter is out of reach for the stingers.

[Doliva63]

Landing from a greater height allows the enemy to detect planes with a landing earlier Unless, of course, we are talking about a thread of Syria and local bandits.

The article is nothing at all, the described techniques are included in the standard training course of the GRU fighter, the compulsory disclosure device is included in the set of D-6, D-10 parachute systems (its meaning is precisely in triggering through a pre-set delay of 3-5 seconds and opening the dome)

The article, apparently, that the combat training of the army special forces is carried out constantly and continuously.

A GRU fighter is very cool!
Firstly, the GRU has been gone for several years; secondly, the “GRU" fighters "were cabinet workers (although many served in the Special Forces, but not all); thirdly, in the Special Forces (including in the brigades that were once subordinate to the GRU) the “lower” position is not a fighter, but a scout. This is if he serves the reconnaissance battalion (detachment), and there are also drivers, and cooks, and clerks, etc. Well, the brigade, it’s big, in general
And the meaning of the device is not in regular disclosure, but to insure, if suddenly a person slammed for some reason the disclosure height. Opening a two-cone lock with a device damages the braid of the ring cable, for this, to put it mildly, they’re chuck

[Doliva63]

It’s not necessary to take me apart in paragraphs, it is necessary to “follow the market”, forgive my French. And, by the way, about the purpose of the device you wrote: "... its meaning is precisely in triggering through a delay set in advance for 3-5 seconds and opening the dome ...", but forgot to say that this is insurance, not the norm. About 30 years ago, when I was a deputy instructor for the VDP, I would "educate you"

[pastooh37]

More jumps are good and different.

[Fkjydjckfrgh]

Why does the modern paratrooper jump with the “oak” and not the “wing”? The “wing” is both more compact and more controllable. Can ultra-expensive nanotechnologies be used in the manufacture of the "wing"?

[Doliva63]

Probably because "infiltration" by parachute method is almost an incredible option. Usually this is done on their own, sometimes "by passing transport" or by the method of abandonment. If on a helicopter, then it crawls along the tops of trees, along ravines, and with 2-3 false hangs that imitate the landing of a group - all for the sake of secrecy. A parachute, perhaps in Syria, is possible, but not the fact that the "kaolitsiya" or the Israelis who "graze" the airspace will not tell the enemy about this. And this will be the failure of the "event." Something like that

[Doliva63]

PPK-U, from memory, gives a "delay" of 5 seconds. , here with her, see, and jumped No, you can up to 50 seconds. Of course, Che, but in the SPN hopping program before (in SA) there were no jumps with a delay at all, that's why I decided. But, again, if you wait while the device is on, you can have trouble with PDI, because a fair trace remains on the braid of the ring. In general, I did not understand anything.
