CORE Survival & Combat Defense Systems Release The Airborne Caution Light (ACL-500)

Hundreds of Soldiers trained with paramount equipment called the Airborne Caution Light ACL-500 series during this year’s Randy Oler Memorial Operation Toy Drop.

At this event, multiple airborne jumps were performed, in which this light module technology helped jumpmasters communicate not only verbally, but also visually with paratroopers ground training. During the light module displays three different colors that corresponds with various commands: red, amber and green.

“The red tells jumpers not to exit, amber light means 30 seconds out and a green means for Soldiers to go,” said Chad Haver, founder of Combat Defense Systems (CDS). “This equipment is attached on or near the mock doors.”

This equipment is a major key to airborne training because there is a light system in the aircraft that paratroopers have to keep watch before jumping.
