The AS-6BKS Scanner Door's "Bubble Window" grants operators the ability to see beyond airframe boundaries yet still can be raised normally for full paratroop door functionality.

Here, 347th Rescue Squad members show a firsthand look at the aircraft used in personnel recovery operations to Hahira community leaders at Moody Air Force Base.

In the modern, connected battlespace, the strength of the kill web depends on the number of sensors feeding it. Every sensing asset expands the vision of the collective.

Quickly integrate a targeting pod with SABIR and transform the C-130 into a valuable long-range contributor to the sensor-to-shooter network.

Recently, Airdyne was honored to be one of the founding exhibitors at the new @GlobalSOF SOF Week Outpost at Peter O. Knight Airport!

We presented how our SABIR line can quickly transform any C-130 with the rapid integration of cutting-edge sensors, making special-mission configurations only hours of installation time away from operational reality.

Thank you to @karman_spacedef for lending their RIPL pod to show an exciting example of effects-deploying capability with SABIR.

When aircraft need fuel away from the base, the HC-130J Combat King II brings essential capabilities. The HC-130J is able to take fuel from a tanker aircraft, carry it forward, and then offload it to store at an austere landing zone. This supports helicopters and other aircraft operating anywhere in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility.
