No, they were the first !
A live rocket airdrop test was conducted for the US Army
Natick Laboratories on 21 February 1963 at the Yuma Test Station,Arizona
A 4,000-pound load with four
G-13, 32 f t , diameter, hemispherical type parachutes and
six modified M-8 rocket motors was airdropped from a C-130
Aircraft at 130 knots airspeed and 1500 feet absolute altitude.Five of the six rockets failed to fire and one rocket fired as the load impacted !
