New Zealand Awards CAE Contract For C130J Sim Support

Covers Weapons Systems Trainer Management, Engineering, Maintenance

CAE announced it has been awarded a contract by the New Zealand Defence Force to deliver simulator maintenance and support services to the Royal New Zealand Air Force for its C-130J Weapons Systems Trainer at the RNZAF Base Auckland.

Under the agreement, CAE will provide management services, engineering, and maintenance support for the trainer. CAE will take advantage of its decades of experience in training and technology services to support C-130 operations across the Indo-Pacific region. This ensures that aircrew training to high standard is available locally to support New Zealand’s strategic and tactical airlift capabilities.

Andrew Niles, General Manager, New Zealand, CAE Defense & Security for CAE said, “CAE is proud to strengthen its long-standing partnership with the New Zealand Defence Force, building on a decade of delivering world-class support to achieve superior training outcomes and enhanced operational readiness of personnel.

“CAE innately understands the requirements for maintaining a high-fidelity training device, ensuring the New Zealand Defence Force benefits from a training partner who can deliver bespoke visual content development, increased device availability, and scalable training operations that enable pilots to develop best practices and advanced skills that are essential for live missions.”

The training will be conducted from No. 40 Squadron at the RNZAF Base in Auckland to provide unequaled access to a local training device that will assist the transfer of complex training activities from the aircraft to a safe virtual environment.
