15 foot X-Form Parachute

This is a high quality military parachute, tested by experts, sewn by professionals, and flown thousands of times in countless applications.

Nominally for a 30 to 60 pound vehicle.

Parachute is New Old Stock in that it has never been used though it comes from a demil'd application.

Very lightweight nylon, stuffs easily into appropriately sized deployment bag.

For lighter rockets, you can easily utilize the chute by adding a reefing line to the apex of the canopy or reefing ring to the suspension lines.
