The Parabomber is a passive primary weapon for the Annihilator and a secondary for the Trooper. It is a brown parachute pack with a white parachute.
Upon pressing the Space key while airborne, the user will start descending slower by 37.3% and have their air control reduced by 50%. Pressing Space again while deployed will deactivate the parachute and cannot be redeployed until the user lands on the ground.
There are two hidden downsides that are unlisted from its inventory stats. One limits the speed of which the user can travel at, reducing their speed to the limit if it is over said limit, and almost completely disabling the ability to air-strafe until the parachute is deactivated.

Tips
- As the Trooper, you can pair it with the Aerial Bomber to fire more rockets steadily or the Market Gardener to reach targets further if the Mantreads are too tactful.
- As the Annihilator, it can be paired with the Stickybomb Launcher or Irish Guard to spam sticky bombs from above or you can use this with the Sticky Jumper and get cheap kills with your melee. You can also use it with the Shock and Awe to reach far away targets.
- Using this in combination with the Shock and Awe can allow you to get instant height, and if high enough, the explosive will recharge by the time it takes you to reach your target.
- You must take a more tactical approach if using the Parabomber. While you will have a better view to rain rockets and grenades down on your enemies, that doesn't mean they can't fight back. You'll be sitting ducks for especially Flankers and Marksmen.
