Crewmembers make final preparations before launching the first Extracted Container Delivery System airdrop mission in combat, April 29, 2013. The mission highlighted the benefits of XCDS, which uses a parachute to pull the bundles out of the aircraft faster while also creating smaller dispersion, resulting in a more accurate airdrop and easier pickup for Soldiers on the ground.
