C-130H MUOS/SATURN Radio
Abstract
The development and fielding of the MUOS/SATURN Radio program will be executed under the AMP Increment 2 program. The MUOS/Saturn Radio program updates radios due to future Diminishing Manufacturing Source (DMS)/integration issues and the incorporation of MUOS/SATURN capabilities. The funding is required for the Non-Recurring Effort associated with integration, testing, TO's, Engineering drawing's, TKI, VKI, and spectrum authorization. Provides weapon system modifications and upgrades to meet USAF mission requirements for the C-130 fleet, to include LC-130Hs owned by the National Science Foundation (NSF), but operated and maintained by the Air National Guard (ANG) to meet USAF mission requirements. Unique NSF modification and upgrades designed to meet NSF requirements will be separately funded by the NSF. The C-130H MUOS/SATURN Radio program modifies up to 155 C-130H USAF-owned aircraft consisting of H3s, H2.5s, H2s, and LC-130H aircraft. The modification effort will have up to four prototype aircraft representative of variations in the mission designs and required for accomplishment of the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase with the remaining aircraft modified in the production phase. This funding includes Rapid Global Mobility (RGM) platform related activities including but not limited to prototyping, capability development, process activities, planning analysis and systems engineering activities. The program may also include any Contractor Manpower Equivalent (CME)/A&AS support deemed necessary to support the program objectives.
