RAYTHEON TECHNOLOGIES SECURES IDIQ AWARD FOR C-130 NP2000 PROPELLER SYSTEM
The new contract will allow Collins to manufacture and support new NP2000 propeller systems, including the electronic control system and spares.
The U.S. Air Force Life Cycle Management Center recently contracted Raytheon Technologies' Collins Aerospace business to continue producing new, advanced propellers for C-130 aircraft.
NP2000 is an eight composite bladed propeller system designed for performance.
The NP2000 propeller system is designed to modernize the C-130 Hercules and E-2 Hawkeye. The composite blades can be removed individually without the need to remove the entire system, decreasing maintenance time and extending the lifecycle of aircraft fleets. More information on the NP2000 Propeller System can be found here.
Work will be performed in Windsor Locks, Connecticut.
