The delivery device may additionally include an attachment portion and a floatation device. The payload holder may be detachably coupled to the payload such that the delivery device detaches from payload upon impact at the target surface. The system may additionally include a release mechanism for detachably coupling the delivery device to the aerial vehicle. The release mechanism includes a receiver and a dropper device.
