The IAI innovation is designed to tow aircraft without activating engines, saving jet fuel and reducing pollution in airports. In 2009, IAI collaborated with the French company TLD to manufacture the tug, with the first prototype built in France in 2011. Now, the development is expected to become a standard procedure in aircraft ground movements
