The invention relates to a radome (1) for an aircraft, and more specifically to a device for connecting said radome to the structure of said aircraft. The radome that is the subject of the invention comprises a plurality of locking units able to bring together the opposing surfaces of the aircraft's fuselage (10) and the radome (1), each unit comprising: locking means (20) able to exercise a traction force on the surface of the fuselage, substantially normal to the surface, via attachment means; centering means able to withstand the shear forces substantially tangential to the opposing surfaces of the fuselage and radome; the locking means (20) are placed such that they are located inside the cone of resulting forces on the centering means so as to minimize the bending stresses generated by the assembly in the radome (1).
