AAR Cargo Systems has received a purchase order to manufacture and supply C-130 cargo handling systems and spares components for 30 Lockheed C-130 Hercules aircraft.
The cargo systems assist in loading, securing, unloading and in-flight release of military-style pallets, including low-altitude parachute extractions.
The purchase order has been placed by B&G Industries, which provides military and commercial aircraft repair and modification services.
AAR Cargo Systems vice president and general manager Vin Misciagna said the contract will enable the company to provide a cost-effective, high-value solution for the conversion and ongoing operation of the C-130 fleet.
AAR has delivered 1,280 of the specially designed systems for the worldwide fleet of C-130 aircraft since 1968.
