> Precision Air Drop System Mission Planner
Precision Airdrop System (PADS®) enables aircrews to increase standoff distance while delivering cargo and personnel from high altitude with greater precision than conventional methods.
The combination of altitude and standoff distance provides a safety buffer for the aircrew from the threat envelope, while precision delivery allows ground personnel to retrieve supplies in greater safety.
PADS® is currently in active use by the United States military, with hundreds of PADS®-supported missions already flown. The PADS® system is also rapidly being adopted by other allied military units, including the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada.
