CAE New Zealand has been awarded a contract by the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) to provide maintenance and in-service support for the C-130J Weapon Systems Trainer at RNZAF Base Auckland.
Under the agreement, the company will deliver simulator maintenance, engineering support, and management services to ensure the continued operation of the training system. The company has experience supporting C-130 training across the Indo-Pacific region, and the contract aims to enhance local aircrew training standards and improve New Zealand’s airlift capabilities.
Andrew Niles, General Manager — New Zealand, CAE Defense & Security, stated: “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.”
Training will be conducted at No. 40 Squadron, RNZAF Base Auckland, using the simulator to transfer complex training activities from live aircraft to a controlled virtual environment. The system is intended to improve training efficiency and safety.
CAE New Zealand, a regional division of CAE Defense & Security, has supported RNZAF training since 2013. The company provides maintenance and service support for several RNZAF platforms, including the T-6C Texan, SH-2G(I) Seasprite, and NH90 helicopters.
