Military Cypres 2
Advanced AAD for Military and Tactical Parachuting
Product Description
The Military CYPRES 2 is an advanced Automatic Activation Device (AAD) engineered for military freefall, HALO, and HAHO operations.
It functions as a fully independent safety system that does not interfere with normal parachuting procedures and activates only when necessary — providing critical backup when a jumper cannot perform emergency actions.
The unit supports two operational profiles: Training Mode for daily dropzone use and Operational Mode for tactical missions.
Activation parameters (altitude and descent speed) can be pre-set or adjusted in flight, even inside a pressurized aircraft cabin.
Built to withstand extreme conditions, the Military CYPRES 2 is ideal for use with heavy combat loads, high-speed deployments, and multi-canopy configurations.
Key Features
Dual operation profiles: Training Mode and Operational Mode
Adjustable activation parameters on the ground or in flight
Maintenance-free power supply (no user battery replacement required)
Fully waterproof for up to 24 hours at operational depth
Long service life — up to 15.5 years
Robust military-grade construction and one-button operation
Real-time display of mode, serial number, and service data on the control unit

About Military CYPRES 2
For training mode a simple switch on before boarding enhances parachuting safety for the next 14 hours to come. By using the unique simplicity of handling, we minimize a potential error input by the stressed soldier. As long as on the ground the electronic processing unit automatically compensates for pressure changes, which are caused by the weather, frequently within its functioning period. The CYPRES senses take off and acceleration of the aircraft and starts to monitor any action made by the parachutist. The soldier can focus his full concentration on the mission at hand.
When it comes to the mission the Military CYPRES 2 shows its superior technology. It can be switched on to operational mode even during flight in an active pressurized cabin and can be set for any target - with the ease of the extremely comfortable one button handling.
The system is an independent back up safety system that will not interfere or restrict the normal parachuting activity. It is designed to activate in emergency situations where the parachutist is not able to perform the proper procedures. The mission objective is not endangered.
CYPRES acts on pressure inputs to the sensing unit, speed and altitude transducers generate the activation criteria. Depending on the CYPRES model in use, it will activate at various preset altitudes when speed exceeds a given setting.
The reserve activation is initiated by the EOS release unit (cutter). This cutter simply severs the closing loop of the reserve container and allows to begin the reserve deployment sequence. This unique activation method was invented and patented by Helmut Cloth the founder of Airtec in 1987. Since 1991 this method is state of the art in AAD technology.
We are proud to say that thru this date we have recorded more than 3000 lives saved.
TARGET SETTING
For tactical applications in remote areas, the Military CYPRES activation altitude can be preset easily on ground, or in flight, or even in a pressurized cabin. A CYPRES Calculator is available, helping to convert and acquire pressure values. A useful tool, supplied free of charge
