Here is a C-130 Hercules in Action.

Just imagine something that looks like one of these hanging on to the parachute.

That will give you some idea of what's going on.

MOAB uses a parachute for extraction, drops the chute, guides to target with gps. Makes it far more accurate than the old daisy cutter which was on the parachute almost all the way.
