Transhield’s Role in Protecting B-52 Engines from Arctic Conditions

Transhield is proud to be part of a protective cover project that helps the U.S. Air Force maintain its fleet of B-52 bombers in extreme cold weather conditions. Our custom-engineered covers have been designed to help prevent ice buildup on the bomber’s engines, reducing costly damage, and improving operational efficiency. By fully sealing engine ducts, inlets, and exhausts, our covers aid in keeping the engines warm and free from ice, saving time on de-icing while reducing the risk of corrosion.
