Brake Parachute for reducing the landing run of MiG-29 has been indigenously developed. Unicross design canopy has 10 m of separation distance from the aircraft tail end. A unique feature of integrated riser and rigging lines has been adopted to reduce its mass. The canopy design has also been optimised with reduced size for mass saving. On pilots command the main canopy is deployed providing deceleration to the aircraft.
• Across Measurement of canopy : 5.76 meter
• No. of rigging lines : 32
• Normal Landing Speed : 180 kmph (72.2 m/s)
• Emergency Landing Speed : 310 kmph (83.3 m/s)
• Basic Material : Fabric Nylon 93 gram undyed.
• Design of Canopy : Canopy Unicross Design
• Life of Parachute : 10 years or 65 streamings whichever is earlier. In case of Parachute operated at emergency speed of 310 kmph it should be withdrawn from the services. The parachute is also compatible to Mig29B/VB Aircraft.
