FIRING HANDLES

TECNASA is the first Spanish manufacturer and supplier for the 5^th Generation fighter plane Joint Strike Fighter F-35 (JSF). Together with Martin-Baker Aircraft, leading manufacturer of ejecting seats for fighter planes, we have developed a new firing handle specially designed the requirements of this advancded aircraft. 

The firing handle mission is to assure the pilot survival in case of inminent danger. Once the firing handle is pulled an ignition system allows the pilot to eject out of the plane, managing to save his life.

The firing handles manufactured in TECNASA are used by more than 90 air forces worldwide and they are installed in a wide range of combat aircrafts and simulators like: Eurofighter Typhoon, Rafale, JSF, JPATS, US NAVY NACES (Navy Aircrew Common Ejection Seat), Saab Gripen and Hawk.

Thanks to its technology and know-how, TECNASA has become a trusted supplier for Martin-Baker Aircraft.
