Abstract: As the main load-bearing structure connecting the electronic pod to the aircraft, the strength and stiffness characteristics of the suspension system must meet the relevant design index requirements to ensure normal operation of the equipment installed in the electronic pod during the flying process of aircraft under a variety of flight conditions. In addition, the suspension system is also required to be lightweight. Based on the above design requirements, the structure of an airborne electronic pod suspension system is designed, while the modal and dynamics analysis of the structure are carried out by using the finite element analysis software; and the weak areas of the suspension system are optimized and improved with reference to the simulated calculation cloud map. The strength and stiffness characteristics of the optimized suspension system had significantly improved compared with the original design through the simulation results.
