Lockheed Martin has received a $110 million contract to upgrade C-130J Super Hercules transport aircraft for Australia, Denmark, Italy, and the United Kingdom. A company release says the Block 6.1 upgrade will allow the countries to share the cost of development, design, test, and integration, while adding their own specific capabilities to each country’s respective aircraft.
Air Force Gen. Alexus G. Grynkewich assumed command of U.S. European Command on July 1, taking over the key assignment as the U.S. and its allies contend with a resurgent Russia and a grinding war in Ukraine.
