dc.description.abstractAerial refueling allows the receiver aircraft to remain airborne for the longer time. It will increase the range and as Fighter jets can fly for only 2-3 hours doing a regular mission. The receiver aircraft can be topped up with extra fuel in the air, air refueling can allow a takeoff with a greater payload. It also increases the effectiveness of surveillance and patrol aircraft by allowing them to remain in the air longer The main aim of the project is to design a support structure that can withstand the load of the probe when it is engaging and disengaging with the refuelling drogue which is located on the mother aircraft and uniformly distribute the load to it. The various constraints faced while retrofitting are the space availability on the aircraft to accommodate the probe, also the LRU’s placed on various floor’s had to be moved around in order to accommodate the mounting bracket that holds the probe in place.en_US
