This C-27J Spartan video is excellent just to show looking from an outside chase plane current Western military airborne exit techniques and equipment!

Rear Ramp Military Free Fall

First, we see the sterotypical MFF rear ramp exit of a small team of men who know how to do Istel stabilized body free fall. The benefits are the aircraft can be flying very high and fast and there's no clutter dangling outside the aircraft. This same capability can be achieved by using Russian-style small drogue chutes upon leaving the rear ramp or side doors precluding the teaching complicated Istel stabilized body techniques so EVERY PARATROOPER can jump at high altitudes and high speeds.

Rear Ramp Static-Line

Next, Soldiers exit the rear ramp and have static-lines open their parachutes which you can see reduces air turbulence hitting them until their deployment sequence has already begun which is great if you are jumping large attached loads like folding All-Terrain "Mountain" Bikes.

Rear Ramp CDS Bundles

After this, container delivery system (CDS) bundles on plywood skid board come off the floor rollers to show a small cargo drop.

Side Jump Door Static-Line

The last jumps show the awful static-line system the west uses that results in deployment bags dangling outside that must be pulled in usually at the cost of two Army Paras not being able to jump and contribute to the fight below. Yet another reason to go to drogue-activated parachutes that cleanly separate the Paratrooper from the aircraft.
