Aviation Towing Complex "ABK Hercules" for Efficient Aircraft Handling

Aviation towing complex (ABK Hercules) is designed for towing aircraft by driverless method (directly behind the front chassis strut of the aircraft without using a tow bar (driver)) in the territory of airports, as well as for manoeuvring aircraft in car parks, hangars and production shops of aircraft building and aircraft repair enterprises.

The use of the Hercules ABK allows to ensure high economic and technological efficiency of ground handling services, including:

- Increase in productivity by more than 100 per cent due to reduction of towing operations time by using the driverless principle of fixing the aircraft and turning the driver's workplace by 180 o

- Reduction of risks of aircraft damage and emergencies during towing and manoeuvring due to the automated safety system of the Hercules ABK and reduction of the "human factor"

- Ensuring efficient aircraft towing in winter...
