Abstract: A neck protection system for a parachute assembly may comprise a head restraint, a first upper strap coupled to a first side of the head restraint, and a second upper strap coupled to a second, opposing side the head restraint. A first lower strap may be coupled to the first side of the head restraint. A second lower strap may be coupled to the second side of the head restraint. A first pull cord may be coupled to the first upper strap. A second pull cord may be coupled to the second upper strap.

Abstract: A canopy fragilization system for use in an aircraft ejection system may comprise: a sharp breaker disposed on a first side of an ejection seat, the sharp breaker configured to act as a primary breaker of a canopy of an aircraft; a blunt breaker disposed on a second side of the ejection seat, the blunt breaker configured to act as a secondary breaker of the canopy of the aircraft; and a deployable overhead protection assembly comprising a mitt extending forward of the sharp breaker and the blunt breaker when in a deployed position, a forward end of the mitt configured to act as a tertiary breaker of the canopy of the aircraft.

Abstract: An aircraft ejection seat sequence may comprise: a sequence controller; a sensor target; and a non-contact sensor in electrical communication with the sequence controller, the non-contact sensor configured to transmit a reference control signal to the sequence controller in response to sensing the sensor target.
