RZ 36
less often seen then the RZ20 version.
After Soviet parachutes were recovered in the course of the war and the advantages of their construction could be examined, the RZ 36 was developed based on this experience. The biggest difference was the 67 square meter triangular parachute canopy (after Richard Kohnke also Kohnke triangular canopy) and a harness with a quick release and improved parachute suspension so that the jumper could land upright. It delivered a smaller development thrust with less tendency to swing and a softer landing and was on May 6, 1943 by Dipl.-Ing. Schauenburg patent pending.
