Collins Aerospace has signed three-year parts distribution agreements with Integrated Procurement Technologies, S3 AeroDefense, and Derco to enhance logistics support for C-130 Hercules wheels and brakes globally. This initiative aims to benefit C-130 operators, as the aircraft has been vital for military and humanitarian missions since 1954. The wheels and brakes, produced in Troy, Ohio, utilize DURACARB® technology, improving service life and reducing maintenance costs for over 30,000 aircraft.
