HALO NIGHT INSERTION

HALO NIGHT INSERTION - Original oil painting by Stuart Brown

 

A four man Special Forces patrol follow a stabilised equipment container during a HALO freefall insertion into hostile territory.
High Altitude Low Opening freefall insertions allow Special Forces to be deployed from altitudes of 25,000ft or higher, taking advantage of a low radar profile. Stabilised equipment containers can be filled with weapons, explosives, supplies and other task specific equipment. The container’s main parachute is deployed by a barometric trigger at a preset altitude and followed under canopy by the HALO team to the landing point.
