During World War II, the U.S. Army primarily used the T-5 parachute for airborne operations. This parachute featured a round canopy and was designed for both static line and free fall jumps. Additionally, the Army utilized the T-7 parachute, which had improvements in design and performance. These parachutes played a crucial role in airborne assaults and troop deployments throughout the war.

Why no parachutes were used in World War 1?

Parachutes were not used in World War I primarily due to their limited development and practicality at the time. While some experimental parachutes existed, they were not reliable or effective for use in combat scenarios. Additionally, the tactics of the war focused heavily on trench warfare and aerial reconnaissance, making the need for parachutes less pressing compared to later conflicts. It wasn't until World War II that parachutes became standard equipment for military operations.
