Russia has developed a new parachute system that can help transport military service dogs to places where an aircraft cannot land. The equipment is undergoing a final testing stage. Technodinamika, the aviation holding company that is responsible for this new kind of parachute, released a video of some tests and interviews on their YouTube and Instagram pages. Their statement said that the equipment was not available in Russia earlier but now it could help a person to paratroop with an official dog to carry out search and military operations in places where an aircraft could not land. They said their system could be used both for a single skydive with a dog and in tandem. The video showed military troopers ready with their trained dogs on board an aircraft. The parachute entrapment is different as it has a strapped pocket where the dog can be carried in front of the human. After the system is strapped on the human and the dog, they set off for skydiving. Fortunately, the equipment works well, and no animals were seen harmed in the process.More Related News
