SRU-36/P Helicopter Emergency Egress Device (HEED)
The SRU-36/P HEED is a compact, lightweight breathing assembly
intended for emergency use of helicopter and E-2/C-2 aircrew
personnel in the event of crash landing in water (ditching). The SRU-
36/P provides emergency breathing air, upon demand, to aid in safe
egress from submerged aircraft. The device provides seven to ten
breaths of breathing air at a water depth of 20 feet and temperature of
55 F.
Safety Restraint Tether (SRT)
The Safety Restraint Tether (SRT) provides the aircrew member with
a “positive” attachment point to the outside of a rescue aircraft. The
SRT is to be used (during emergency situations) when a downed
aircrew member has to be evacuated by a rotary-wing aircraft with
limited interior space and no other aircraft is available to perform the
pickup. See SRT operating procedures in WP 0013 00.
