Disclosed is a naval platform equipped with a deck-landing/takeoff zone for at least one aircraft and dolly-type mechanism for handling the aircraft to move it over the deck-landing/takeoff zone. The dolly-type mechanism includes a vacuum disc for immobilizing the dolly and thereby securing the aircraft in position on the deck-landing/takeoff zone, the operation of which is triggered by an analyzer of the behavior of the platform in order to avoid any risk of uncontrolled movement of the aircraft.

Naval platform provided with a zone for the deck landing/take-off of at least one aircraft and dolly-type means for handling said aircraft

A naval platform has a zone for the deck landing/take-off of an aircraft and an aircraft handler, to move the aircraft over the deck landing/take-off zone. The aircraft handler includes a body in the form of a bar for gripping and securing the main landing gear of the aircraft, provided with an anchoring hook mounted to slide in at least one rail, guiding the the aircraft on the deck landing/take-off zone. The hook is retractable, allowing the release of the body in the form of a gripping and securing bar from the rail, the body gripping the landing gear of the aircraft. The movement of the aircraft brings the body into position on the rail, and the hook into a position in which it faces the rail, and the hook back into an anchoring position in the rail in order to secure the aircraft.
