AIRDROP OPERATIONS FORCE MULTIPLIER
The Centerline Vertical Restraint System (CVRS) is designed for use on the C-130 aircraft to provide vertical and lateral restraint of CDS containers during flight and throughout the airdrop phase.
The CVRS permits the airdrop of up to 12 A-22 containers from each side of the aircraft. Each container can be rigged and airdropped in a single pass, for a total of 24 individual containers, or all 24 can be airdropped simultaneously.
The CVRS was designed to accommodate 482 plywood skidboards; however, 482 x 53.52 and 482 x 962 plywood skidboards may be airdropped with the CVRS installed by rotating the skidboard(s) 90 degrees to allow the 482 side to fit between the CVRS and the aircraft dual rails. The CVRS uses the existing tiedown rings in the aircraft and provides a similar set of tiedown rings as a replacement.
No special tools are required to install the CVRS. Two personnel can install or remove the CVRS in less than 30 minutes.
The reliability and ease of operation of the CVRS has been proven in combat missions by U.S. and Allied nations worldwide.
