High Performance with Flexibility

The Energy Absorber also called brake, gear or arresting engine is the most important part and setting the performance of the Aircraft Arresting System. With five decades of experience in arresting fighters we offer a unique and complete range of brakes for arresting aircraft weighing up to 40 tons. We present computer based simulations of energy absorber performance based on specific requirements. All energy absorbers presented here are suitable in hook cable applications and all can be installed either on ground level, in set-back configuration or below grade in bunkers (pit).

If you look for highest possible performance together with maximum flexibility for your hook cable arresting system the state-of-the-art computer controlled BC11 energy absorber system is the answer. If the requirement is for a certain aircraft the WT44 rotary hydraulic brake or the USAF standard BAK-12 are available. In any case we have the complete range and customer optimized solutions that no other can offer!
