This <a href="http://www.cc.gatech.edu/%7Etpilsch/AirOps/sar-penetrator.html">jungle penetrator</a> is a rescue device that could break through dense foliage when lowered by cable from a helicopter. It folds out into a seat and was used by pararescuemen who often rode them to the ground. Straps are provided to secure riders as they are hoisted, and a flotation collar can be attached for water rescues. It weighs about 20 pounds and was developed by the Kaman Corporation, which also built the HH-43 Huskie rescue helicopter.<br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v80/harnett65/Album11/pic1664.jpg" /><br /><a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v80/harnett65/Album11/pic1664a.jpg">Larger image</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />1665.
