Jet Blast Deflectors

Description
Specifications

BDI offers a complete range of blast deflectors offering protection from all aircraft sizes, power levels, and any location on the airfield.

Models include vertical jet blast fencing for a minimum footprint, narrow base deflectors for aerodynamic efficiency and protection of taller structures, and full power / after-burner models for take-off power and high-power engine testing.

Our range even includes FAA approved fiberglass deflectors that can be installed near ILS and radar systems located at the end of the runway. Frangible configurations with special ‘break-away’ ground anchors are available.

Whilst all deflectors are designed to minimise foundation requirements, BDI offers portable jet blast barriers for situations where construction of a dedicated foundation is not wanted or the ability to relocate the deflector in the future is desired.
