Recoil Aerospace, Inc. (Recoil) has announced the debut of its latest product innovation, the new Expeditionary Fuel System (EFS), which was unveiled at the Army Aviation Association of America (AAAA) Summit in Nashville.
The addition of a fuel pump system to Recoil’s existing Expeditionary Fuel Tank (EFT) further expands its mission support capabilities for operators, providing increased, immediate access to fuel when needed most. Geared toward the ever-growing need for Forward Arming and Refueling Points (FARP) in remote locales, the EFS is both durable and lightweight – key aspects when operating in austere and/or unexpected locations. Recoil’s continued commitment to delivering dependable and mission-ready support to military and commercial customers worldwide is even more evident with this new system.
“Recoil is committed to supporting United States Army Aviation and its ground forces in the ever-expanding dynamic of the modern battlespace. Introducing the Expeditionary Fuel System provides the soldier with a modular, durable, and lightweight solution to agile FARP operations.The EFS provides a 1,000-gallon carbon fiber tank, 150 gallon per minute pump, filtration, 50-foot hose reel in a sling loadable, air droppable package, which is scalable with added 1,000-gallon Expeditionary Fuel Tanks. This is the capability gap closer we believe Army Aviation has been looking for,” said Joseph Rice, President of Recoil Aerospace.
The addition of the EFS reflects Recoil’s continued investment in updating and expanding its product line to support growing global demand.
