A landing gear for a vehicle includes a strut configured for reciprocating movement between a stowed position and a deployed position. A shock absorber has a first element slidingly disposed within the strut and a second element slidingly coupled to the first element. A trailing arm is rotatably coupled to the second element. A first linkage is coupled to the first element, wherein the first linkage drives the first element between a raised position when the strut is in the stowed position and a lowered position when the strut is in the deployed position. The landing gear further includes a second linkage coupled to the trailing arm. The second linkage rotates the trailing arm between a first trailing arm position when the strut is in the stowed position and a second trailing arm position when the strut is in the deployed position.
