Landing Gear Systems and Their Influence on the Construction, Functionality and Safety of Military Aircraft

U radu su objašnjene različite ideje izrade podvozja počevši od jednostavnijih prema složenijim. Navedene su njihove prednosti i mane i kako je podvozje određeno namjenom zrakoplova. Kako se konstrukcija podvozja usložnjavala, tako su se i sustavi u sklopu podvozja razvijali u svrhu što sigurnijeg izvođenja operacija. Takvi su sustavi također opisani u radu. Svrha ovog završnog rada bila je analiza podvozja vojnog zrakoplova i upoznavanje s njegovim utjecajem na zrakoplov u cjelini. Kroz analizu su u obzir uzeti zrakoplovi koje Hrvatsko Ratno Zrakoplovstvo (HRZ) koristi za obuku budućih pilota. Analizirane su njihove tehnološke značajke, sigurnosni aspekt, tip konstrukcije, raspoloživi sustavi i mogućnosti samih zrakoplova u praksi.The thesis explains different ideas of undercarriage construction, starting from simpler to more complex. Their advantages and disadvantages are stated and how the landing gear is determined by the purpose of the aircraft. As the construction of the landing gear became more complex, so did the systems within the landing gear develop in order to perform operations as safely as possible. Such systems are also described in the thesis. The purpose of this thesis was to analyze the undercarriage of a military aircraft and to analyze its impact on the whole aircraft. The analysis took into account the aircraft used by the Croatian Air Force for the pilot training. Their technological characteristics, safety aspect, type of construction, available systems and capabilities of the aircraft in practice were analyzed
