PERUC-130 Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Hello... We are a Peruvian imports company... Peruvian Air Force has purchased two former Spanish Air Force K-130H... they need a VOR/ILS ANTENNA P/N 354086 / IW 40202-2 ... I can't find this antenna anywhere... does anyone know of a reliable source, or if these has been superseded, or what is happening why can't I locate a VOR antenna for a C-130 aircraft?.... Thank you vey much!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyclark Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Yes, that antenna is no longer available. The aircraft was modified using two blade antennae. The information is in 1C-130H-4-34-1, section 4 Fig 9. It may be easier to get some from a retired aircaft in AMARG. If you need more info, let me know.

Metalbasher Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Anyone know the approximate timeline the USAF transitioned to the two blade antennas mounted on the vertical at the approximate same VOR antenna location? I think the mid to late 1990s but not sure. Thanks Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wasn't a TCTO issued for it that I know of, it was just used as an alternate antenna. It was mounted in the same holes that the old antenna used. It got rid of the corrosion problem caused by the copper band on the old antenna mounting surfaces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
