ABSTRACT:
A mounting system for two turboshaft gas turbine engines which are connected by a coupling gearbox. The mounting system comprises a front mounting attached to the gearbox which permits pivotal movement of the engine/gearbox assembly but restrains longitudinal movement and two strut members which support the engines vertically but provide no lateral or longitudinal support. The engines are interconnected by link members and an intermediate member rotatably attached to the vehicle which permit relative lateral movement between the engines but constrain any lateral movements of the engines which are in unison relative to the vehicle.
