📣✈️ Project update from our team in Norway ✈️📣 🗣️ “Nova Systems have successfully completed the Tactical Air Transport phase of our Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E) programme, enabling 335 Sqn of the Royal Norwegian Air Force to deploy their Block 8.1.1 upgraded C130J Hercules aircraft on the European Tactical Airlift Program exercise (ETAP-C) in Spain this month. After ensuring new aircraft features could be exploited safely to conduct strategic airlift and tactical operations, we are incredibly pleased that the Block 8.1.1 aircraft can be operationally tasked for missions, and approval to proceed with a tactical campaign to complete the Block 8.1 OT&E programme which will cover Air Land, Air Drop and tactical low flying, in both daylight and using night vision goggles. The programme so far has been highly successful, and the Nova team have enjoyed a close and productive integration with 335 sqn and their OT&E crew. Plus operating from Gardermoen and flying across such stunning terrain has been fantastic experience for me, and our Test and Evaluation team in Norway. Nova Systems are rightly proud of our established expertise in Flight Test and Evaluation, and we look forward to continuing to help delivery capability for our Norwegian customers” – Tom Whittingham, Senior Operational Systems Consultant, Fixed Wing Program....Show more
