Lockheed Martin has delivered two more C-130J Super Hercules airlifters to 3rd Airlift Wing, Little Rock AFB, Ark., where they were assigned to the 48th Airlift Squadron—the Air Force’s C-130J training unit. A total of six have been delivered to the unit this year, and the new aircraft are the longer fuselage C-130Js that feature a strengthened cargo ramp and improved airdrop capability. A total of 180 C-130Js are on order, with 135 delivered already.
Anduril and General Atomics will develop their Collaborative Combat Aircraft for the Air Force, beating out Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman, the service announced on April 24. But any of the non-selected companies can compete to actually manufacture the eventual design, the Air Force said.
