Abstract
The High Technology Test Bed (HTTB) Program involves a long-term commitment by Lockheed to provide a flight test aircraft for the development and integration of generic technologies by adding major advanced systems to a C-130 type aircraft. The technology and knowledge gain will be essential for Lockheed’s and vendor’s proposed future aircraft including: tactical airlifters, fighters and other mission aircraft. This paper deals with modifications to the aircraft and briefly discusses the technologies being investigated by these modifications.
