Abstract
A suspension for suspending a jet engine on an aircraft strut includes a beam having a platform provided with fasteners for fastening the beam to the aircraft strut and arranged transversely with respect to a longitudinal axis of the jet engine. The suspension also includes first and second lateral links, the second lateral link being prolonged by a finger housed with clearance in a cavity provided in the beam so as to form a standby safety connection. The suspension further includes a central link. The finger extends between the platform and a pin of the central link in normal operation.
