The Joint Precision Airdrop System (JPADS) is an American military airdrop system which uses the Global Positioning System (GPS), steerable parachutes, and an onboard computer to steer loads to a designated point of impact (PI) on a drop zone (DZ). The JPADS family of systems consists of several precision airdrop systems, ranging from extra light to heavy payloads. JPADS is used in conjunction with mission planning software that resides on a laptop. The function of this mission planning software includes computing release points, weather forecasting, acquiring measurements of wind velocity, altitude, air pressure, and temperature. It can also receive weather updates and en route mission changes through satellite links.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Das JPADS ist ein Schwerlast-Abwurfsystem der US-Streitkräfte zur präzisen und autonomen Luftanlandung militärischer Lasten. Das System wurde seit 1997 entwickelt, um an einem Last-Gleitfallschirmsystem einen sicheren und präzisen Abwurf von Versorgungsgütern für militärische, aber auch humanitäre Zwecke aus großen Höhen zu ermöglichen, die in einer vorgeplanten Landezone angelandet werden sollen. Eingesetzt wird JPADS bei den US-Marines, der US-Army und der US Air Force. (de)
