BAE Systems has received an $8.4 million U.S. Air Force contract to provide crashworthy seats for C-130 aircraft.

The company will develop, test, and install as many as 88 seat systems to enhance the survivability of the crew during normal, emergency, and combat operations.


This work builds on BAE Systems’ strong history of performance in support of the C-130 community. The company has designed, supported, and completed more than 200 modifications to C-130 variants over the past 12 years.
