These advanced units will support a range of helicopter platforms, including the Chinook, Apache, Cougar and NH-90. The multi-purpose ground support units are designed to provide essential hydraulic power, electrical power, and compressed air, supporting maintenance operations and contributing to safe and effective mission readiness.
This project is the result of a strong collaborative effort between Sun Test Systems BV and the Material and IT Command. Through close cooperation, both parties have developed a solution tailored to the operational needs of the RNLAF. The contract was officially signed today in the presence of Colonel Peter Arts and STS CEO Eric Bron.
Colonel Peter Arts commented:

Eric Bron, CEO of Sun Test Systems BV, added:
“For STS, this kind of teaming with Materiel and IT Command and the Royal Netherlands Air Force is of utmost importance. We are proud to support the RNLAF’s helicopter operations.”
This agreement underscores the continued commitment of Dutch industry and COMMIT to work together in strengthening operational capability and mission readiness.
