Terberg Aviation deliver TowFLEXX TF3 MilSpec for the Boeing Apache Helicopter

IN | 21st October 2024

Terberg Aviation is proud to deliver this TowFLEXX TF3 MilSpec, along with a custom cradle for the Boeing Apache Helicopter.

The Military’s First Request:
The first request for an electric and radio remote control solution for fighter jets was received from the Swiss military – Armasuisse – many years ago. A compact, all-electric towing solution for F18 jets was sought. This did not exist at the time of the inquiry but was subsequently jointly developed, similarly to this Apache TF3 unit. The MilSpec version is used for a variety of aircraft in the military. These include: A10, F15, F16, F18, F22, F35, T1, T38, U2, G3, KC-135, C-130, MQ9 Reaper drones and more.

MilSpec for Military Applications:
Almost all models are now available as a MilSpec (Military Specification) version. Those differ in several aspects from the commercial configurations, have more safety features in the standard configuration, a more robust military-look colour coating, extended spare parts availability, and much more. The current status of all MilSpec equipment has been developed in conjunction with the United States Air Force (USAF) to serve the intense demands and various application areas.
