Designed to mark the lead jumper during parachute operations

Easy to operate in freefall

Switches are designed for positive operation by a gloved hand, in the blind, with the helmet donned.


Ultra-High Intensity

Ultrabright IRs emit a unique flash pattern distinctly marking the lead jumper in a stack.

High-intensity Green solid and Ultra-High intensity White flash clearly identifies the lead jumper during training events.


Operating Extremes

HEL-STAR Lead Jumper Light® is shock and vibration resistant, dustproof and open sea waterproof to 130 fsw (laboratory 300+ feet).



HEL-STAR Lead Jumper Light® was designed to mark the lead jumper during parachute operations. Equipped with Ultrabright IRs that emit in a distinctly unique flash pattern of Morse Code “D”, HEL-STAR® Lead Jumper Light unmistakably marks the designated leader.

HEL-STAR Lead Jumper Light® provides four functions in two selectable operating modes in visible and IR. This new device offers the HAHO/HALO community new flexibility on marking personnel. The tan & black body helps distinguish it from other HEL-STARs.
