IMOD Recognizes Conti Federal’s Contribution to Key Element of the F-35 Bed-Down Program

March 10 2020

The Israeli Ministry of Defense (IMOD) recently awarded Conti a Certificate of Recognition for its work on Hardened Aircraft Shelters for Israel’s F-35 fighter program. These highly secure, complex facilities are the first of their kind in Israel and were delivered for USACE Europe. In total, Conti installed the shelters, multiple support structures, administrative facilities, utility systems, and ammunition storage sheds.

USACE’s Israel ACO said of the work, “This specific project entailed multiple aspects and facets of original and unique design, especially within the structural discipline. Conti’s ability and experience in the steel and concrete works allowed for solid partnering on site leading to an overall better product for the customer.”
