Methods and systems for impact force attenuation reduce the time, expense, and material utilized in connection with aerial delivery of a payload. An impact attenuation system comprises a first airbag coupled to an aerial delivery platform, a gas source coupled to the first airbag, and a first pressure release valve coupled to the first airbag. Via use of an impact attenuation system, a payload may be more quickly rigged for aerial delivery, and more quickly extracted from an aerial delivery platform subsequent to the airdrop. Additionally, rebound, rollover, and other undesirable ground impact conditions may be reduced and/or eliminated.
