-The '''Falcon Wing aerial descent unit''' is a type of parachute utilized by the [[UNSC]] for aerial insertion of soldiers, considered by [[Lieutenant (UNSC)|Lieutenant]] [[Kurt-051]] to be the safest type. The unit consists of a pack strapped onto a soldiers back that most likely contains a black, ram-air parachute. The Falcon is controlled by two ropes on either side of the user which can be used to maneuver the parachute during descent and affords the soldier the ability to choose their landing zone.
