High Pressure Pre-Conditioned Air Unit (PCA) – 20 HP (Military Aircraft)

The MAK PCA 20 HP Pre-Conditioned Air Unit (PCA) is a specialized ground cooling system exclusively engineered for military fighter aircraft, including 5th-generation platforms such as the F-35 and other advanced combat jets. This unit is not intended for civil or commercial aircraft applications and is purpose-built to meet the stringent operational, environmental, and reliability requirements of defence aviation.

Designed to support aircraft during ground operations, maintenance, mission preparation, and turnaround, the PCA unit delivers precisely controlled, clean, and dry conditioned air directly to the aircraft environmental control interface. It enables complete shutdown of onboard systems during ground time, protecting sensitive avionics, mission electronics, and cockpit systems from thermal stress.

Built for extreme operating conditions, the MAK High Pressure PCA unit features ruggedized construction, high thermal performance, and continuous-duty capability, ensuring reliable operation in harsh climates and high-security airbase environments. Its military-grade design supports reduced fuel usage, lower acoustic signature, and enhanced aircraft readiness while complying with defence ground support standards.
