Anyone have experience with these parachutes? Unusual shape/design, and it comes with a deployment bag. Seems like a decent deal for $30 and a well built canopy, and "advertised" for a 10 lb weight.
Google research from the pn# seems to indicate that they for some kind of 2000lb Vietnam-era naval bomb/mine. Not sure how to predict what load/descent rate they could handle - CD could be something interesting to predict with this odd of a shape.
Looking to put it in a 4" airframe.
