Lockheed Martin select Newbow GSE for F-35 Aircraft.
November 2011 – Newbow Aerospace delivers precision instrumentation to Lockheed Martin for use with the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Aircraft.
Newbow Aerospace have been working with Lockheed Martin’s Mechanical Engineering Division for the past 12 Months to offer advise and technical support regarding the aircraft landing gear – in-service support requirements.
Because the F-35 is such a technically advanced aircraft, high quality support equipment will be required to ensure the aircraft is being maintained to the highest of standards during both in-service operations and routine base maintenance.
Part of the overall service requirement will be the maintenance and support of the aircraft tyres and landing gear struts.
Newbow Aerospace Ltd is globally renowned for manufacturing and supplying extremely accurate, safe and reliable civil and military Ground Support Equipment that focuses on aircraft landing gear. Lockheed Martin decided without doubt that Newbow Aerospace was more than the perfect company for this specific project.
After 12 Months of technical support and product design, Newbow Aerospace delivered a range of bespoke aircraft strut charging tools, tyre inflation tools and tyre pressure checking gauges to Lockheed Martin, Fort Worth, Texas, USA. This equipment will solely be used for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Aircraft.
