Fighter Jets Platforms

For the Dutch defense we designed a dock for the maintenance of F35 aircraft. The docking system consists of nine separate mobile platforms that are connected to each other. The platforms are positioned closely around JSF and follow the contours of the aircraft with sliding floors.

Key Benefits

  • Easy to maneuver with multiple configurations possible because of the nine separate mobile parts
  • Space-efficient because all the platforms are ground mobile
  • Lightweight and stable construction due to an optimal mix of steel and aluminum
  • Sliding floors to access aircraft panels, manually adjustable
  • Optimal safety; all platforms are equipped with safety railing types
  • Height adjustable to access the aircraft on multiple levels

Features

  • Surrounded with rubber padding to protect the aircraft skin (design based on no touch policy)
  • FOD prevention incorporated
  • CE declaration of conformity
  • Platform is in compliance with: EC-Machinery Directive (2006/42/EG) & modifications
