C-130H Avionics Modernization Program (AMP) Increment 2

Abstract

The C-130H AMP Increment 2 upgrades the C-130H fleet with comprehensive avionics and cockpit modernization which replaces aging unreliable equipment and adds combat capability enhancements. It also addresses select obsolescence and diminishing manufacturing sources (DMS) issues. RDT&E efforts include design, integration, developmental test, Type 1 training, and C-130H aircrew and maintenance training systems and courseware development efforts. The C-130H AMP Increment 2 program modifies 172 aircraft (166x C-130Hs and 6x LC-130Hs) consisting of H3s, H2.5s, H2s and H1s; and includes 127 Air National Guard aircraft, and 45 Air Force Reserve aircraft. The modification effort will have 4 prototype aircraft required for accomplishment of the Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) phase, with the remaining 168 being production aircraft. The prototype aircraft represent each type of C-130H configuration listed above.
