The ASRA kit on the tanker was mounted on rails that ran in the gap between the end of the fuel tanks and the HDU on the ramp. It was all a bit cramped especially as we had additional MS10s stowed in the walkway alongside the fuel tanks. The rails were used so that a seat for an observer could be fitted in the open doorway before being slid out of the way and the ASRA positioned. Unlike the one in your photo the JATE design had the ropes stowed under the metal base on which the MS10s sat.
I believe JADETU came up with another ASRA design for the J Herc, having failed to remember they had designed one for the Herc Tanker.
