The present invention is directed to an aerial delivery system that provides for the controlled delivery of items from an aircraft into a selected drop zone. In accordance with the present invention, the aerial delivery system includes a base and a sidewall arrangement adjacent the base. The sidewall arrangement generally acts as a sleeve defining an inner volume. Within the inner volume is a tray or cassette configured to be moveable within the inner volume. Adjacent the sidewall arrangement opposite the base is a top cover. The top cover is generally oversized relative to the shape defined by the sidewall arrangement. A plurality of straps connects the top cover, sidewall arrangement and, optionally, the material within the inner volume. The aerial delivery system is activated by an air stream that catches the oversized top cover, forcing the separation between the top cover and the other portions of the aerial delivery system. The separation of top cover places a load upon the straps that initiate the release of materials contained within the aerial delivery system.

Système de largage aérien qui permet le largage contrôlé d'articles à partir d'un aéronef dans une zone précise. Le système comporte une base et des parois latérales adjacentes à la base. Les parois latérales servent généralement de manche délimitant une chambre interne. € l'intérieur se trouve un plateau ou une cassette configurée pour demeurer mobile dans la chambre interne. Le long de la paroi latérale qui est à l'opposé de la base est placé un couvercle. Ce couvercle est généralement surdimensionné par rapport à la forme définie par les parois latérales. Plusieurs sangles relient le couvercle, les parois latérales et, au besoin, le produit contenu dans la chambre intérieure. Le système de largage aérien est activé par le flot d'air qui s'engage dans le couvercle surdimensionné, forçant ainsi la séparation du couvercle et des autres parties du système. La séparation du couvercle impose une charge aux sangles, ce qui déclenche la libération du produit contenu dans le système de largage aérien.
