Deployable Support Containers

Project:

Deployable Support Containers

Customer:

MoD

Goal:

Secure solutions for deployable containers

The Challenge

To provide modular, secure storage for an aircraft’s spares, tools, test equipment and documentation.

Our Solution

For every hour of flight time, maritime-deployed aircraft – both fixed and rotary wing – require many hours of maintenance.
STS Defence’s Deployable Support Containers are designed to deploy with an airframe to house its own kit of spares, tools, test equipment, and documentation and to be transferred from platform to platform as the aircraft is redeployed. The containers can be delivered to platforms by road or underslung from helicopters and are fixed to the platform using a hanging rail system.
Deployable Support containers are currently used on all UK aviation-capable maritime platforms as well as all Naval Air Stations and were recently chosen to support CH148 helicopters on the Canadian Halifax-class frigates.
All the necessary supports and fixings have already been fitted to the Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers ready to be used for their embarked helicopters and the F35B Lightning II.
Available in a range of sizes, the containers are fully ruggedized and compliant to MIL-STD-810F with features that include a roller-shutter front access with secure locking system. They can be configured internally with user-specified shelving, drawers, and compartments. The containers can also be used to house first aid and firefighting equipment and are an ideal solution for rapid deployment on disaster relief operations.
STS Defence is the exclusive licensed manufacturer of the MoD-designed containers that are the transportable, secure storage solution of choice for supporting maritime aviation and offer an easily adaptable configuration that can be tailored to almost any requirement.
