Abstract: Air Delivery is a challenging test environment. The dynamic conditions of expelling cargo and personnel from a moving aircraft and decelerating them to land safely is not a trivial task. Furthermore, in a developmental test environment there is always a chance for malfunctions. Instrumentation installed on cargo and personnel is used to capture key performance parameters during airdrop test events. The U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground recently began an instrumentation effort to expand its existing capabilities to include onboard Chapter 10 (CH-10) recording and simultaneous Chapter 7 (CH-7) streaming of high-definition (HD) Ethernet video and analog sensor data from an airdropped payload. This paper describes the progress towards enhanced air delivery instrumentation.
