Aircraft Life Extension - CC130 Hercules Avionics Update

Abstract

The Canadian Department of National Defence (DND), having taken measures to ensure the structural integrity of the CC130 Hercules to beyond 2010, studied a number of technical and economic options with respect to extending the life of its ageing CC130 Hercules avionics suite. The Department selected the option of a consolidated and comprehensive avionics update as the preferred option to ensure the aircraft can perform its missions with peak efficiency and that the avionics would meet or outlast the estimated life expectancy for the aircraft.
