Innovation HOW TO SQUEEZE 140,000 POUNDS INTO 1,500 FEET. At an unusually short airstrip, seventy tons of aircraft and payload fly over a 50-foot obstacle, touch down and stop. It’s possible because of an aerodynamically efficient STOL configuration that includes a drooped leading edge, double-slotted flaps, spoilers, high-sink-rate landing gear, and large control surfaces directed by an advanced fly-by-wire digital flight control system. The result is a 47% reduction in landing distance over the minimal 2,800 feet required by today’s standard C-130H Hercules. It’s a dramatic improvement in airlifter utility. But it’s just one of the capabilities being evaluated by Lockheed in its High Technology Test Bed (HTTB). Since 1984 this unique aircraft has been evaluating technologies essential to the Advanced Tactical Transport of the future. To optimize STOL performance and maximize survivability in combat, the HTTB tests large electronic displays, head-up displays, night-vision-goggle-compatible lighting, threat management systems, voice input and output, mission computers and side arm controllers. It does it all in the most important environment of all: actual flight. A new generation of aircraft is coming. Lockheed’s HTTB is helping ensure that mush of what these designs carry will already be proven technology. Lockheed-Georgia Giving shape to imagination

Pilots aboard the new C-130J can utilize a special low-altitude technique. We call it "looking out the window." If you're wondering why we put a Head Up Display on the new C-130J, ask the pilots who must routinely pull out of approaches just 10 feet off the ground in order to drop their cargo. They'll tell you that the aircraft's twin HUDs are a great safety feature, particularly during those critical low-altitude drops and when executing instrument approaches at minimums'. They also help maximize terrain masking enroute. Of course, this is just one of the "J's" many technological improvements. We've also replaced 600 pounds of hard wiring with MIL-STD 1553 databus architecture, redesigned the props,-and installed fuel- efficient twin-spool engines. In addition, mission plans are now put on a 2-by-3 inch card and inserted into the aircraft's mission computer. We've done all this to help you accomplish your mission. It's been our modus operandi since the Hercules debuted in 1955. And with this all-new, cost-efficient aircraft, it will continue to be for years to come.

We’ve put a pretty amazing computer on board the new C-130J. (No, we're not just shipping it someplace.) If the words "C-130" and "high technology" seem out of place in the same sentence, they won't for long. Because the new C-130J Hercules comes complete with an advanced mission computer using MIL-STD 1553 databus architecture. This new technology which replaces 600 pounds of hard wiring allows the aircraft's operating systems to stay in constant communication with one another. And it even displays mission plans from a pre-programmed 2-by-3 inch card that's inserted into it. Of course, this is just one of the money-saving, technological triumphs we've installed on the aircraft. We've also added twin Head Up Displays, redesigned the propellers to make them 18% more efficient and added twin-spool engines for greater thrust. We've done all this for one reason only.

It's amazing what you can do after losing 600 pounds. Talk about your weight-loss success stories. When we took some 600 pounds of hard wiring out of the C-130 Hercules, it made room for an amazing array of new, high-technology systems. This MIL-STD 1553 databus architecture, linked to the aircraft's mission computer, forms the brain of the new C-130J. Systems and functions that once were controlled or monitored individually now work in effortless tandem. Of course, this is just one of the money-saving, technological triumphs we've installed on the aircraft. We've also added a fully computerized mission-planning system, twin-spool engines for greater thrust, six curved props to increase efficiency, and twin Head Up Displays for safety.

Curved blades mean more thrust, less fuel and less noise. Just another way the “J” saves you money over its life span. A prop that's 18% more efficient. And 100% funnier-looking. If you're thinking of snickering at the odd-looking propellers on the new C-130J Hercules, think again. Simply by twisting the blades a bit and increasing their number to six, we've given the aircraft 18% greater thrust at the same power setting. It means at gross weight, the "J" can now climb to 20,000 feet in just 14 minutes, compared to the 22 to 28 minutes of its predecessors. It also means the aircraft will use less fuel and run quieter.

Visibility falling fast, Wind shear, engine-out approach Mission: Make this landing with no hazard to crew or aircraft. Technology: Advanced simulator training for Hercules aircrews. The Hercules Flight Training Center is the most advanced learning facility ever dedicated to Hercules aircrews. Operated jointly by Lockheed-Georgia Company and Singer/Link, the Center houses a state-of-the-art Hercules simulator with full motion and computer-generated color visual system. All training is conducted by highly qualified instructors. Simulator training is supported by classroom instruction with the latest audio-visual and electronic learning aids. Computer analysis is used to let crews review and measure their own skills against the optimal performance for critical situations. Programs are continuously updated to reflect situations experienced by Hercules operators worldwide. Why choose a simulator over airborne training? Only with a simulator can crews maximize proficiency by repeatedly practicing situations too hazardous to attempt in flight. Only with a simulator can crews receive concentrated instruction without delays due to weather, maintenance, airspace restrictions, and ground operations. And only with a simulator can crews prepare for demanding duty without the high costs of fuel and wear on your own aircraft. To get the most cost-effective training for Hercules aircrews, talk to the people who build the airplane. For complete details on the many simulator training programs available, contact: Mr. John Williamson, Manager, Hercules Flight Training Center, The Lockheed-Georgia Company, 86 South Cobb Drive, Marietta, GA 30063, USA.
