MH-60R AMT Enters Service For US Navy

CAE-Built AMT Will Provide Transition And Readiness Training For Avionics Electronics Techs

The first MH-60R avionics maintenance trainer (AMT) built for the United States Navy has been declared ready-for-training and entered service at the Center for Naval Aviation Technical Training Unit (CNATTU) in Jacksonville, FL, CAE USA said Monday.


MH-60R AMT

The MH-60R AMT will now provide transition and readiness training for MH-60R avionics electronics technicians and be used to demonstrate, instruct and provide hands-on experience on maintaining the MH-60R Romeo helicopter, which is used by the Navy for anti-submarine warfare and surface attack. CAE USA is designing a second MH-60R AMT that will be delivered later this year to Naval Air Station (NAS) North Island, California.

"We are pleased the Navy has declared the first CAE-built MH-60R avionics maintenance trainer ready-for-training," said John Lenyo, president and general manager, CAE USA. "The Navy now has put into service comprehensive MH-60R Romeo training systems from CAE that are helping pilots, rear crews, and maintenance personnel prepare for mission success."


MH-60R TOFT

CAE USA is also the prime contractor responsible for the design and manufacture of MH-60R tactical operational flight trainers (TOFT) for the US Navy. The MH-60R TOFT includes both an MH-60R operational flight trainer for training pilots and an MH-60R weapons tactics trainer for training sensor operators and airborne tactics officers. The two training devices can operate independently or networked to provide a total aircrew mission training system. CAE has already delivered two MH-60R TOFTs to the US Navy, and will deliver a third MH-60R TOFT later this year.
