  "textContent": "An aircraft assist system (38) described herein includes an aircraft coupling counterpart attached to a strut (26) of a landing gear (22) of an aircraft (10), and an assist vehicle (12). The assist vehicle (12) includes a frame, ground-engaging wheels (34, 36) mounted to the frame, a power source for driving one or more of the ground-engaging wheels (34, 36), and a vehicle coupling counterpart for engagement with the aircraft coupling counterpart. The aircraft coupling counterpart and the vehicle coupling counterpart define a swivel connection for transferring a propulsive force from the takeoff assist vehicle (12) to the aircraft (10). The aircraft coupling counterpart is disengageable from the vehicle coupling counterpart by upward movement of the aircraft coupling counterpart relative to the vehicle coupling counterpart.",
