What is an 'eagle-claw'

Hello I am new. Working on building a new plane in Plane Maker 11 and I noticed a new field under Landing Gear that I have never seen before. The field is located on the panel for defining attributes for each landing gear the plane has. A field for eagle-claw length, which is right next to the field for leg length.

My question is, what is the eagle-claw?

Eagle claw is the tilted landing gear. It's similar to the shape of an eagle's claw in how it's tilted back when it's about to land on say a tree or something. XP11 Default Boeing 747 Bogey Tilt Issue [Attempt To Solve] - General  X-Plane Forum - X-Plane.Org Forum Eagle claw landing gears

IL-76 has no tilted landing gear, so there are no eagle claw gears
