Abstract: Damage mitigating apparatus comprises totally extending hollow tubes, and projectiles attached to undeployed fabric and formed with a tube-receivable rod. Pressurized gas which is generated upon triggering of a gas generator flows through the tubes to propel the projection and to cause performance of at damage mitigating operation. In one embodiment, a damage mitigating aerial vehicle comprises sensors for detecting flight related characteristics and a communication unit for commanding activation of parachute deploying apparatus and of a lift generator deactivation unit following determination of a flight failure. In one embodiment, an aerial vehicle transmits a critical failure alarm signal to an unmanned aircraft traffic management system (UTM) station following detection of to failure, and the UTM elation transmits a warning signal to neighboring aerial vehicles that are predicted to be in a vicinity of the descent path of the failed aerial vehicle to avoid collision with the failed aerial vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a parachute deploying apparatus, comprising: a) a manifold with which is releasably coupled a single vessel within which pressurized gas is generated; b) a gas generator which cooperates with said vessel; c) a plurality of hollow tubes which extend obliquely and upwardly from, and are in communication with, said manifold; and d) a plurality of projectiles, each of which formed with a rod that is receivable in a corresponding tube and to each of which is connected a cord that is also connected to a corresponding portion of an undeployed parachute, wherein the pressurized gas which is generated upon triggering of said gas generator is flowable through each of said tubes to propel said plurality of projectiles in different directions and to cause said parachute to become deployed.
