Imagine semi-AI parachutes and pallets that measured their trajectory as they landed and fed that data back to the parachutes a few seconds behind them such that the landing precision increased automagically when you drop multiple pallets. Even better prioritize by contents so stuff thats tough and easy to recover by hand lands first as the guinea pig and signals back to all the other soon to arrive pallets whereas you can nearly guarantee the mortar ammo lands within 10 feet of the mortar weapon. Why you could even kick the mortar and mortar rounds off different aircraft and theoretically they'd land right next to each other in formation, whereever they happened to land. Speaking of guys on the ground using some of those "invisible" IR chemlights and some smoke grenades the soldiers on the ground could visually signal conditions back to the parachutes while the parachutes are falling... This formation of flares on the ground or whatever means hot LZ so use dense hot LZ pattern, this formation means crazy civilians are rushing the field about to get squashed so disperse, this pattern means the LZ has just been overrun so fire the thermite grenades while you're still in the air... Another strange idea, do the helo LZ thing where you try to secure three LZs to throw the enemy off, and only after the parachutes are already falling, throw smoke and the parachutes all formation fly to the pre-determined LZ. So instead of the enemy having an hour to react or tens of minutes, the troops will be resupplied a couple minutes at most after its obvious they're getting supplies.
