Abstract

A device for recovering forces generated by an aircraft engine has an engine strut (10), capable of being fixed to a wing or a fuselage of an aircraft, and an attachment device (12) fixed to the engine strut (10) and on which the engine is mounted. An intermediate fitting (24) of large dimensions, capable of recovering exceptionally high forces is fixed to several strut fittings (30) independent from each other, for example by bolts (28), across a lower spar (14) of the engine strut (10).
