Alenia looks beyond Afghanistan for refurbished G222 sales

By Stephen Trimble

As Alenia Aeronautica today delivers the first refurbished G222 to Afghanistan, company officials foresee a wider, global market for modernised versions of the light cargo aircraft.
Four countries, including two possible new G222 customers, have submitted requests for information about the refurbishment programme launched last year, a senior Alenia official says. Last September, the US Air Force awarded Alenia North America a $287 million deal to refurbish 18 G222s delivered to the Italian Air Force between 1977 and 1996 for new service with the Afghan National Army Air Corps.
Libya and Peru are interested to add the aircraft to their military cargo fleets, while existing G222 customers Argentina and Thailand could also join the programme. Meanwhile, the USAF has requested pricing data to add two more G222s to Afghanistan's future fleet, and further sales to the national are also possibile, another senior Alenia official says.
The potential new orders could extend the programme's life well beyond the scheduled delivery in late 2011 of the final G222 from the current order.
The programme calls for Alenia to guarantee a minimum of 10,000 flight hours after the refurbishment, which also includes standardising four or five different avionics configurations into a single suite that includes a new colour map display, GPS-based navigation and upgraded autopilot.
Alenia cycles aircraft through the refurbishment process every six weeks, company officials say

Fede... la nota es del 25/09/2009... me llamo la atencion de que nos incluyan. Personalmente me sacaria los G222 YA MISMO y los reemplazaria por algo mas facil de mantener como uno de la seria CASA CN...
En fin, es mi opinion.

la nota solamente repite lo que Alenia declaro cuando largo el primer C-27J modernizado que todavia seguia pintado de verde, te voy a buscar la nota

yo se los donaria a Afganistan como hizo Italia...que sea problema de otro
 
seria bueno regalarlos como dicen ,con un moñito y todo. En su lugar se podrian adquirir unos CASA CN-235 o por lo menos CN-212-400 como minimo

Seguramente el calentador a kerosen para calentar el agua del mate, recivira el upgrade "UPDATE 2010", para funcionar con biocombustible.Saludos

Fuera de joda, en su momento hubiere sido bueno que los motores actuales, fueran reemplazados por Allison T56, como los del Hercules o los P3, para unificar la logistia, pero como siempre cada fuerza tiene que tener sus propios artefactos diferentes alas otras, para complicar y encarecer la logistica.Saludos
