ABSTRACT:
A parachute associated with an object unfolds faster in an airstream if the object is first accelerated in the direction of descent. This principle can be applied advantageously to a mine system combating military targets from the air because the time between starting from an ambush position in the terrain to the onset of searching movements in the air can be shortened.
