DEPLOYABLE OVERHEAD PROTECTION ASSEMBLY AND METHODS OF USE FOR CANOPY FRAGILIZATION SYSTEM
A canopy fragilization system for use in an aircraft ejection system may comprise: a sharp breaker disposed on a first side of an ejection seat, the sharp breaker configured to act as a primary breaker of a canopy of an aircraft; a blunt breaker disposed on a second side of the ejection seat, the blunt breaker configured to act as a secondary breaker of the canopy of the aircraft; and a deployable overhead protection assembly comprising a mitt extending forward of the sharp breaker and the blunt breaker when in a deployed position, a forward end of the mitt configured to act as a tertiary breaker of the canopy of the aircraft.

AIRCRAFT ESCAPE SYSTEM AND EJECTION SEAT SEQUENCER FOR EJECTION SYSTEMS
An article of manufacture may include a tangible, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon for controlling deployment of aircraft escape and ejection seat subsystems. The instructions, in response to execution by a sequencer, cause the sequencer to perform operations, which may comprise receiving, by the sequencer, a power input; sending, by the sequencer, a first deploy signal to a first aircraft escape subsystem; and sending, by the sequencer, a second deploy signal to a first ejection seat subsystem.

AIR MOBILITY
An air mobility may include a seat in which an airbag or a parachute is stored; and an escape portion configured to support the seat mounted to the escape portion, coupled to the air mobility to form part of the air mobility, and configured to enable a passenger to perform an emergency bailout with the seat to an outside of the air mobility when the escape portion is separated from the air mobility.
