The 352 Special Warfare Training Squadron (352 SWTS) has a need for 10 Non-Tactical Ram Air Parachute Systems (NTRAPS). The acquisition of NTRAPS directly enhances mission readiness by significantly increasing instructor proficiency in Military Free Fall (MFF) operations. These advanced canopy systems allow instructors to safely replicate the high wing-loading flight dynamics and canopy control characteristics of heavy combat equipment without the associated physical strain.
