New rigs to test CTOL actuators

Since Comar's success in developing a test rig for the weapons bay door system, we have been involved in developing a number of test rigs for the testing of uplock actuators, rotary geared actuators and many of the anicllary actuator tests. The latest in this line is the current build of rigs to test the CTOL (conventional take off and landing) variant door actuators and unit testing of the tail hook actuator for the carrier variant (CV), the tail hook catches a wire on the aircraft carrierdeck to arrest the travel of the fighter.
