We study equivariant contact structures on complex projective varietiesarising as partial flag varieties $G/P$, where $G$ is a connected,simply-connected complex simple group of type $ADE$ and $P$ is a parabolicsubgroup. We prove a special case of the LeBrun-Salamon conjecture for partialflag varieties of these types. The result can be deduced from Boothby'sclassification of compact simply-connected complex contact manifolds withtransitive action by contact automorphisms, but our proof is completelyindependent and relies on properties of $G$-equivariant vector bundles on$G/P$. A byproduct of our argument is a canonical, global description of theunique $SO_{2n}(\mathbb C)$-invariant contact structure on the isotropicGrassmannian of $2$-planes in $\mathbb C^{2n}$.
