Originally created for the Dassault Aviation Rafale aircraft, the Air Turbine Starter ATS-305 is designed to start the SNECMA M88 engines, from the intake air flow supplied by the Auxiliary Power Unit of the aircraft (Microturbo APU Rubis 3).
The ATS 305 starter can be used in harsh environments and has excellent operating reliability. It can also be integrated into single engine aircraft. Combined with the Rubis 3 Auxiliary Power Unit, this starter has the advantage of allowing a start on the ground autonomously and also in flight. It optimises the safety of the flight.
