Recoverable Payload Fairing

Assembly

Clamshell shroud, ~5.2 m diameter, whose halves fly themselves back: each one carries its own cold-gas thrusters and steerable parafoil, splashes down gently and is fished out, dried and reflown. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
