Air Force Seeks Proposals for Electronic Vulnerability Assessments of C-130 Aircraft
The Air Force is seeking proposals to assess the electronic vulnerabilities of the C-130 aircraft family, including the EC-130J and AC-130Js, as part of a market survey published on June 2. The initiative aims to identify companies that can address microelectronics, software, and algorithm obsolescence, enhancing the aircraft's capabilities and reliability over a minimum two-year period. The assessment will include tabletop and red team evaluations, along with strategies for electronic modifications.

The Air Force is soliciting proposals to evaluate the electronic vulnerabilities of the C-130 weapon system family, specifically the EC-130J Commando Solos, EC-130J Super Js, and AC-130Js. A notice published on June 2 indicates that the service is conducting a market survey to identify companies capable of studying and developing solutions related to microelectronics, software, and algorithms to address obsolescence issues.
The project aims to enhance capabilities and improve performance, reliability, maintainability, and availability. The assessment will span a minimum of two years and will involve tabletop and red team assessments, a report with mitigation strategies, and investigations into electronic modifications.
