The strut box includes a longitudinal axis, a forward portion that extends along the longitudinal axis, and an aft portion that extends from the forward portion along the longitudinal axis. The engine attachment system includes a forward attachment apparatus that is coupled to the forward portion of the strut box and that is coupleable to a forward spar of the wing. The engine attachment system includes an aft attachment apparatus that is coupled to the aft portion of the strut box and that is coupleable to an aft spar of the wing. When the strut box is coupled to the wing by the forward attachment apparatus and the aft attachment apparatus, the aft portion of the strut box is positioned under the wing. The strut box is coupleable to an engine.
