- FAC receives AN/TPS-78 air surveillance radars
Inigo Guevara, Washington, DC - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly 24 August 2015
The Colombian Air Force (Fuerza Aerea Colombiana: FAC) has taken delivery of four new Northrop Grumman AN/TPS-78 3D long-range radars, FAC commander Major General Carlos Bueno Vargas announced on 20 August during a visit to the No 2 Air Combat Command in Apiay.
The FAC ordered the mobile radars through a USD114 million contract signed in November 2012 and intends to deploy them as part of its new National Air Defence System (SISDAN: Sistema de Defensa Aérea Nacional), replacing the ageing AN/TPS-70 radars in service since 1990.
According to Maj Gen Bueno Vargas, the new radars will be used to provide air surveillance, mainly in support of Colombia's ongoing fight against illegal flights carrying narcotics, but will also be available to improve civilian air traffic control, as they will interact with the current civilian radar network.

La Force aérienne colombienne dit adieu à l’OV-10 Bronco !
La Force aérienne colombienne a dit adieu au vénérable OV-10 « Bronco » encore en service. Une cérémonie officielle a eu lieu sur la base aérienne de Casanare, pour marquer le départ à la retraite du vénérable aéronef.
Le « Bronco » est en soi une icône en Colombie, en ce qui concerne la lutte contre les groupes terroristes. Mais, il devenait toujours plus difficile d’obtenir des pièces détachées pour maintenir les 5 derniers appareils encore en service. La légende du « Bronco » en Colombie a commencé en 1991, lorsque la Force aérienne colombienne a reçu ses 11 premiers exemplaires N°FAC2211 à FAC2221, offert par le gouvernement américain de l’époque. L’OV-10 « Bronco » était alors utilisé dans les missions militaires de bombardements, l'appui aérien rapproché, d'observation avancée et l'infiltration de forces spéciales. L'Armée de l'Air a utilisé un total de 22 aéronefs, dont trois unités ayant appartenu aux Corps des Marines des États-Unis (soit les séries: 155 434, 155 436, 155 448) enregistré en Colombie : FAC2222 à FAC2224.
En 2000 la Colombie a modernisé sa flotte de « Bronco » à travers le programme de « Foreign Military Sales (FMS). Ce processus comprenait plusieurs mises à jour, qui ont permis aux « Bronco » d’améliorer leurs performances opérationnelles au combat. Les modifications apportées aux OV-10 colombiens concernaient la motorisation des moteurs T-76, l'installation d’une nouvelle hélice Hartzell à 4 pales, une prolongation de vie de la cellule à 15.000 heures de service, le remplacement du câblage et de l'évolution de rotation par convertisseurs statiques, le changement de la pompe hydraulique et le train d'atterrissage, la modification du système de carburant et l'installation d'une nouvelle avionique qui comprenait des écrans multifonctions.

- Survivable Combat Tactical Vehicle Launches in 2016
Nov 13, 2015
Textron Systems Marine and Land Systems is looking launch its Survivable Combat Tactical Vehicle (SCVT), possibly as early as 2016.
There are plans for Ukraine and possibly Colombia to become launch customers for the vehicle. The company told Shephard at AUSA in October that both countries had received sample vehicles.
The SCTV is a development of the ubiquitous but lightweight High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), well used by European and Middle East militaries, and has been redesigned from the ground up to enhance crew survivability and data-links.
The UAE has also been identified as a prospective customer but any deal has been described as ‘not as advanced’ as the other two, according to Textron officials.
Speaking to Shephard, Jonathan Dalrymple, VP business development at Marine and Land Systems, said the HMMWV was never designed with the survivability of a specific ambush and mine-resistant vehicle, given the roles it was expected to carry out.
A staged upgrade programme first sees the legacy HMMWV delivered to local contractors who then refurbish the vehicle and add to capsule protection and any procured components, before final assembly and delivery.
‘We will do [the modifications] in country. The model we are looking at deploying in the host country and not to do it in the US,’ said Dalrymple.
Thousands were purchased in the past by countries in the Middle East like the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Iraq. Some existing customers are operating in conflict zones and wars in Yemen and Syria.
The SCTV was not driven by former customers however, rather a former US special forces soldier who had seen the devastating effects IEDs and asymmetric warfare had on the thin-skinned four-wheeler.
Unlike the HMMWV, the SCTV has a monocock crew compartment, shaped sides and belly plate armour. The vehicle has been ‘stripped down to the frame’ in order to achieve these enhancements, which Dalrymple says make the SCTV more survivable than an MRAP.
Vehicle performance kits include a mobility, engine, cooling and braking packages. Safety enhancements will see roll-over crush protection added, the isolating of fuel cells from the crew compartment, fire-retardant insulation panels fitted, an external battery compartment, and an improved air conditioner.
The roof will support the weight and function of most gunner protection kits and weapon systems currently in use, according to Textron Systems.
A modular upgrade approach enables all 11-series HMMWVs and select 10- and 9-series vehicles compatibility with the five primary kit selections. Future developments could include using strong but lightweight materials to reduce the overall weight of the vehicle.

- Colombian Air Force Increases Mission Capability with Acceptance of Seventh Bell Helicopter Huey II Kit
Mar 30, 2016
Bell Helicopter, a Textron Inc. (NYSE: TXT) company, announced today that the Colombian Air Force (COLAF) had accepted their seventh Huey II Kit – continuing to improve their fleet performance and mission readiness.
The delivery of the Huey II Kit is a part of an ongoing upgrade program designed to revitalize the Colombian Air Force’s UH-1H fleet. The upgrade allows for multiple configurations and increased overall mission capability.
“The Huey II upgrade reduces direct maintenance costs (DMCs), improves performance and enhances safety,” said Bob Poindexter, Huey II Customer Support and Services Program Manager for Bell Helicopter. “With more than 270 aircraft built, the Huey II is the only OEM approved UH-1H upgrade currently available.”
In addition to improved aircraft performance, the Huey II upgrade program has allowed for increased capabilities of COLAF maintenance personnel. COLAF’s ability to work directly with Bell Helicopter’s onsite support throughout the initial conversion process has allowed maintenance personnel to develop a broader understanding of the Huey II structural and maintenance differences from the UH-1H.
“The program began with an onsite full-time Bell Helicopter technical representative supporting the in-country upgrade program for the initial Huey II conversion,” added Poindexter. “Following the initial upgrade, COLAF has been completing all conversions. The program overall allows for the increased fleet longevity and better cost oversight and forecasting.”
Bell Helicopter provides its customers with local support in every corner of the world and has the largest support network in the industry with more than 100 Authorized Customer Service Facilities in 34 countries. Ranked number one in customer support by Professional Pilot magazine for 22 consecutive years, Bell Helicopter is committed to having resources where customers operate to speed up delivery of service and support, and give customers access to service professionals that are easy to reach, know the operating environment and understand their needs.

- Colombian Army seeks cargo aircraft
Santiago Rivas, Buenos Aires - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly 19 April 2016 Colombian Army Aviation is considering buying about 10 medium-size liaison aircraft, with two tons of cargo capacity, to increase and standardise its fleet, army sources told IHS Jane's .
Currently, the aviation branch has a mixed fleet of liaison aircraft, some captured from drug traffickers and other purchased, but this has caused logistics problems.
The fleet comprises a mix of Beechcraft C90; Catpass B250, B200, B300, and B350; Rockwell 695 Aero Commander; Casa C-212-100; Cessna 208B Grand Caravan; and Antonov An-32B.
However, the army wants increased capacity to carry small cargo and small numbers of troops between bases. One option analysed is to buy more Casa C-212s, but the service is also studying the Dornier 228, among other types, the sources said.

- One of World's Longest-Running Wars to End With Colombia-FARC Peace Deal
The Colombian government and FARC rebels have officially reached an historic peace deal, bringing an end to a 50-year war. The accord, announced in Havana, Cuba, on Wednesday, requires the Colombian government to carry out substantive land reform and overhaul its drug trafficking policies. It also requires Bogota to expand state services into rural sections of the country.
There is no room for winners or losers when you achieve peace through negotiations," FARC negotiator Rodrigo Granda tweeted. "Colombia wins, death loses." The agreement must be approved by voters in a plebiscite before it can take effect. A vote is expected to take place in October. Negotiations were finalized on Tuesday. FARC is one of the world’s oldest Marxist insurgencies, formed in 1964 when it launched a war to overthrow the government of Colombia and install a revolutionary regime. Since fighting began, over 220,000 people have been killed, and another 5 million forced to abandon their homes. 406 ... 190
