Technodinamika, a Russian state-owned aviation company contracted by Russia’s defense ministry to develop canine parachutes, confirmed Tuesday the project will reach a final stage of completion by the end of 2021, the
Moscow Timesreported Wednesday.
“Technodinamika said Tuesday that it was in the final stages of testing Russia’s first canine parachute system. Footage broadcast on [Russian] state media Tuesday showed a doberman pinscher and a German shepherd flying from [an altitude of] 4,000 meters [about 2.5 miles] and making a soft landing in an open field,” according to the online newspaper.
