Aim
• The aim is to inform all members present on
the current status and the SAAF expectations
of the C-130 B-model fleet.
Scope
• History and Current Fleet Status
• Expectations
• Observations and Recommendations
History and Current Fleet
Status
• Seven B-models delivered 1962/3
• Maintained iaw USAF T.O. System
• Centre Wing replacement and Outer Wing
upgrade from late 1960’s to early 1970’s iaw
Lockheed Martin SB’s
• Engines upgraded from T56-A-7 to T56-A-15LFE
• Small avionics upgrade done within the SAAF in
the early 1980’s
History and Current Fleet
Status (cont’d)
• Two ex-USAF and three ex-Navy C-130’s
acquired through Excess Defense Articles
program
• Full Avionic Upgrade from late 1990’s to 2010
done on nine aircraft
• Multi-disk brakes fitted in 2009
• Fleet operates with GTC85-71A, original ECS
and a mixture of Stainless Steel and Inconel
Bleed Air Ducts
Current Fleet
Expectation
• Requirement: Operate the B-model fleet until
2020!
• Current reality: Fleet will stay in service until a
replacement is acquired?
Observations and
Recommendations
• Continued Airworthiness - Essential
─ Obsolescence and supportability to be addressed
• Upgrades to attain 2020 - Essential
─ APU, Propulsion e.g. TD Amp
─ Air conditioning / pressurization Etc.
• Cost of ownership – Defined and Essential
─ Maintenance, facilities and support contracts
