MOSCOW, October 2. /TASS/. Specialists of the tEchnodinamika holding of ROSTEC State Corporation are developing the latest parachute training system that will allow young parachutists to learn the basics of landing. This was reported to TASS by Alexey Kozin, the chief designer for parachute construction of the holding.

"Now we are developing a training parachute system with a lifting capacity of up to 120 kg just for training entry-level parachutists, including in DOSAAF," he said, specifying that jumps with such a parachute can be performed, including teenagers, the mass of a parachutist should be over 60 kg.

The novelty will have a round dome and an increased resource of use in comparison with existing training systems.

In July 2020, the holding supplied the Moscow City Flying Club DOSAAF of Russia "Volosovo" with training parachutes of the "Junior" system for training children who are members of the children's and youth movement "Yunarmiya".

To date, the DOSAAF Aero Club of Russia is implementing a modular program of the Moscow Center "Patriot.Sport" "Young parachutist". It is used to train young army men from 14 to 18 years old. Since 2017, the number of participants has grown from 120 to 630 children and the club needed to increase the number of parachute systems.
