The Tactical Parachute is a device used by S.H.I.E.L.D. operatives to slow their descent during a relatively short jump.
History[]
During an undercover mission to follow an unknown package designed by Cybertek, Inc and delivered to Ian Quinn, Agent Melinda May deployed this parachute after being shot while atop a train.
The parachute allowed her to jump quickly off the train and land safely, despite the high speed of the leap.[1]
