14:13 GMT, July 10, 2012 Farnborough Airshow | On display at the Terma stand C26 in Hall 2 is the F-35 Multi Mission Pod built using the very latest composite technology for extra strength and light weight. The pod is designed for versions of the F-35 with requirements for external stores.
In 2004, Terma won the contract to design, develop, qualify, and produce F-35 Gun Pods for the F-35B and F-35C in partnership with General Dynamics Armament and Technical Products, a business unit of General Dynamics.
The F-35 Pod is a full monocoque composite structure in carbon fiber. It passed engineering test and qualification and has flown on the F-35 in February 2012 and is currently in the LRIP production phase.
The F-35 Pod Enclosure will provide real estate on the F-35, which can be used to expand the F-35 Special Mission functionality, by allowing the F-35 to fly Next Generation EW and ISR systems, such as Jammers and EO sensors.
Terma is deeply involved in the design and production of a large variety of structural and avionics components for the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter.
Based on more than 25 years of experience working with aerospace composites and composite-to-metal bonded assemblies, Terma provides a wide range of high performance small to medium-sized advanced aerospace composite structures. We pride ourselves on delivering a quality product that has been tested to the highest standards.
That is the solution to the f-35 B and C's gun problem
