Pearson Engineering’s LINK range of vehicle interfaces enables mission flexibility through the integration of Front-End Equipment.
LINK supports armoured vehicles to rapidly deploy, recover and interchange a wide variety of combat engineering mission equipment. It allows any suitable vehicle to become an ‘engineering variant’ and is typically welded to the vehicle hull, providing a robust and reliable interface.
With an understanding that the demands of the battlefield can evolve quickly, LINK is designed to provide agility, flexibility and adaptability to armoured vehicles.
Enhanced mobility and adaptability are critical assets in reducing the predictability of armoured vehicles. Pearson Engineering‘s LINK provides Commanders with the option to rapidly mobilise a broader range of vehicles, drawing upon a common pool of Front-End Equipment.
Once LINK is fitted, the Front-End Equipment can be quickly integrated in field conditions, without the requirement for specialist tools. Dependent on the environment, this takes around 10 minutes but with suitable training can take as little as 2 minutes. Importantly, the interface allows for under armour jettison of battle-damaged equipment.
A ‘high lift’ version of Pearson Engineering’s LINK provides the capability to improve the approach angle of tracked vehicles.
Each LINK variant is designed specifically for the user’s vehicle type, mission-set and doctrinal requirements.
