A-22 AERIAL DELIVERY CONTAINER
The A-22 container is an adjustable nylon cloth and webbing container used to deliver food, medicine, ammunition, supply type loads and disassembled, or ready-to-use equipment in a convenient 1-ton bundle. A-22 containers are also used to drop folded Zodiac-type boats, motorcycles, snowmobiles and arctic
sleds.
The A-22 container consists of a sling assembly, cargo cover and four suspension webs connecting the container to the parachute. The entire bundle is attached to a plywood skidboard and uses paper honeycomb as energy dissipating material.
