SSK Military Industries, Inc. - Military CYPRES 2 2500/29A

The Military CYPRES 2 2500/29A is a parachute Automatic Activation Device that initiates reserve deployment in emergency situations. It has an activation altitude of approx. 2,500 ft above the DZ when a vertical speed of approx. 29 m/s (65mph) and greater is achieved.

The Military CYPRES 2 2500/29A is recommended for 'heavy' (two jumpers with full combat equipment) tandem and MTTB (bundle) operations. The activation altitude of 2,500 ft addresses large size parachute deployment and heavy loads. The activation speed of 29 m/s is adjusted to the slower fall rate under a large drogue after the cutaway of the bundle load. For the bundle delivery parachute, we recommend a vertical separation of 1000 ft. minimum. A combination with the 1500/35A or 1000/35A model would be our recommendation. Consult with the manufacturer of your parachute/container system for additional assistance.
