In Brief

During the Second World War a team led by Raoul Hafner carried out experiments using rotary-winged aircraft as a means of delivering troops and vehicles onto the battlefield. The Rotachute P5 was designed by Hafner in 1941 to carry a fully equipped man, a Bren gun, 300 rounds of ammunition, a parachute, a gun sight and a compass. The craft would have been towed into the vicinity of a landing zone and released, allowing the pilot to guide the craft to the ground under auto-rotation.
