Enhanced Speed Bag System

The Enhanced Speed Bag system was designed to standardize the resupply procedure. The system consists of a hands free linear brake, rope and a padded cargo bag that can hold up to 200 pounds and be dropped from 100 feet.

Six systems can be rigged in a Black Hawk simultaneously. Each bag can hold a maximum of 200 pounds of supplies. All six bags can be deployed from the aircraft into the resupply area at the same time, which allows for up to 1,200 pounds of supplies per aircraft to be dropped. Each bag must weigh at least 125 pounds. The bags are gauged using the multisetting gauge before they are loaded onto the aircraft. Because of the length of the rope in each system, the aircraft must maintain an altitude between 100 and 110 feet during the deployment of the bag.
