RELIABLE SOLUTIONS

Supplying the Ministry of Defence

Combining a lightweight design with the ability to be deflated and collapsed quickly for easy stowage, our intake covers have been chosen for the EH101 Merlin Helicopter. 

The non-metallic, light materials used for construction means that damage is minimised if the covers are ingested or blown across the deck or airfield into other aircraft or personnel.

QUALITY

The company’s BS EN 9001 2015 quality assurance system is registered with SGS, a UKAS approved company.

Case Study

Submarine Gaiters

Checkmate developed effective, low-cost tooling and our very own test rig to dramatically reduce costs in mission-critical scenarios across Spain, Germany, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea.

Case Study

Beach Recovery Vehicles

The Royal Marines’ BRV can be damaged if water enters above maximum wading depth. Checkmate designed and built flexible intake and out-take covers which can be quickly closed to protect the vehicle.
