Supporting single and multiple supply lines is increasingly difficult and complex due to distributed points of need and strategically complex regions. To ease logistical challenges, AAR Mobility Systems ISU® (Internal Slingable Unit) family of lightweight containers safely transport critical supplies during major installations for training or deployment operations significantly increasing mission success.

ISU® Containers are transported by sea, rail, air, and ground directly impacting the time it takes for encampments to receive vital equipment and sustain combat power. Rapid deployment of cargo to the point of need significantly improves troop readiness across military branches.

AAR Mobility Systems long term strategic relationships, make it easy to repair and purchase empty containers for storage and cargo deployment or to tailor ISU® Containers with communication panels, shelving, and environmental control units (ECU) to support both military personnel and Military Working Dogs (MWD).
