1. Primary Shock Absorption: Absorbs impact forces during landing to protect the aircraft structure and passengers.

  2. Hydraulic & Pneumatic System: Uses oil and nitrogen gas to dampen vertical loads and provide smooth landing.

  3. Load-Bearing Component: Supports the full weight of the aircraft while on the ground.

  4. Retractable Mechanism: Designed to retract into the fuselage or wing during flight to reduce drag.

  5. Durable Construction: Made from high-strength alloys to withstand repeated stress cycles and extreme conditions.

  6. Maintenance & Safety Critical: Requires regular inspection, lubrication, and servicing to ensure reliable operation.
