Marshall Aerospace teams with Alsalam for C-130 MRO
This teaming agreement, which extends the business relations between the two companies, will provide the Royal Saudi Air Force (RSAF) with a cost-effective C-130 modification, maintenance and repair services. The agreement was signed at the Dubai Airshow.
Marshall Aerospace has a long-standing relationship with the C-130 platform. The company specialises in the conversion, modification, maintenance and support of aircraft and holds many type approvals, enabling the Marshall Aerospace to design and certify modifications on a number of commercial and military platforms.
Last year, Alsalam was awarded a SR 545 million military contract to provide C-130 technical support services to the RSAF fleet, with a five-year period of performance, from 2011 to 2016. Within the contract, Alsalam provides skilled manpower to support and train the RSAF to maintain the fleet inside and outside the Kingdom. Alsalam has also provided Programmed Depot Maintenance ( PDM), technical support services and cockpit upgrade for the C-130 Fleet.
