Cobham's range of buddy refuelling pods provide a fast jet tanking capability that is particularly effective for Carrier based Naval operations or the defence of extensive national boundaries. Currently used on aircraft such as the F/A-18, SU30, A4 and Tornado they can be fitted either under the wing or fuselage mounted.

Future buddy refuelling pod systems will be suitable for the 5^th generation digital fighter and future unmanned aircraft where range and persistence is required.
