Das Boot

Not sure if I don’t have a revised loading scheme set of drawings from JATE in the mid 90s.
I visited Little Creek and Dam Neck a few times. On return our guys were keen to develop a similar Airdrop scheme. I think the second word was “off”. The PAC 28 DRIB was overweight requiring dispensation on overloaded chutes. Not sure if they have dropped bigger since I left.
There may be an earlier version of the LRIC preserved at Shrivenham.
At least the fit would be more comfortable in the A400.
