ST Engineering’s Aerospace Arm Secures C130 Contract From Royal Air Force of Oman

Singapore, 15 January 2013 – Singapore Technologies Engineering Ltd’s (ST Engineering) aerospace arm Singapore Technologies Aerospace Ltd (ST Aerospace) today announced that it has secured a contract to provide the Royal Air Force of Oman (RAFO) with a full scale maintenance and modernisation solution for three of its C130 Hercules aircraft. ST Aerospace will undertake both modernisation and maintenance work at its facility in Paya Lebar, Singapore.

The contract includes major servicing of the aircraft, repair and overhaul (R&O) of aircraft components as well as the Rolls-Royce / Allison T56 / 501 engines and its accessories. A significant part of the contract also involves the modernisation of the aircraft cockpit, which is complex in nature and involves extensive aircraft wire tear down and re-wire. The first aircraft is expected to be inducted in the third quarter of 2013, targeting for redelivery in the first quarter of 2014.

Under the modernisation programme, ST Aerospace will equip RAFO’s fleet of C130 aircraft with an avionics suite that is Global Air Traffic Management (GATM) compliant. The avionics suite will include a six-display full glass cockpit, digital flight control system, and flight management system. With this, the aircraft would be able to navigate safely, efficiently and accurately through CNS/ATM-regulated airspace worldwide, significantly improving its operational readiness, despatch reliability and operational efficiency. RAFO will benefit through improved operational efficiency and lower maintenance requirements, while enhancing its overall aircraft availability.

An integrated service provider, ST Aerospace leverages its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) expertise, as well as its strong in-house engineering capability, and value adds through performing depot level maintenance and cockpit modernisation simultaneously. With a short turnaround time of five months, RAFO will enjoy increased savings with minimised downtime of its fleet.

"The Royal Air Force of Oman has enjoyed an excellent working relationship with ST Aerospace for over 20 years. We are satisfied with its performance level and work quality. We selected ST Aerospace because it is a one stop centre for the C130 Hercules aircraft and has extensive capabilities on this aircraft platform. Its ability to undertake depot level maintenance and cockpit modernisation simultaneously is especially advantageous to us, as it minimises downtime and improves aircraft availability of our fleet.” ~ Air Vice Marshal Matar Ali AL-OBAIDANI, Commander, Royal Air Force of Oman

“We are indeed honoured to be awarded this contract and are grateful for RAFO’s continued trust in our company, to provide its fleet with quality and dependable solutions. We are proud of our long term relationship with the RAFO for over 20 years and are looking forward to this opportunity to further strengthen our successful partnership. ST Aerospace shall leverage our vast experience and expertise on the C130 Hercules aircraft platform to ensure that we deliver to the RAFO a highly reliable and effective system.” ~ CHANG Cheow Teck, President, ST Aerospace

ST Aerospace’s relationship with RAFO began in 1988, when the air force selected it to perform component repairs for the C130 Hercules fleet. Through the years, the partnership progressed to include airframe, component and engine MRO. With this contract, the partnership is further extended to include modernisation of their C130 Hercules aircraft.

An approved Lockheed Martin Hercules service centre, ST Aerospace is the premier one stop centre for the C130 Hercules aircraft. With extensive experience and expertise, coupled with comprehensive capabilities in airframe structural repair and design and modification, to component and engine R&O, ST Aerospace has redelivered more than 500 C130 aircraft to date, providing nose to tail solutions to C130 operators globally.

This contract is not expected to have any material impact on the consolidated net tangible assets per share and earnings per share of ST Engineering for the current financial year.

Oman's Skyvan replacement nears flight test

Airbus Military's first of eight C295 medium transport and maritime patrol aircraft (MPA) on order for the Royal Air Force of Oman is due to enter flight testing at the company's San Pablo site near Seville on 14 May.

Oman ordered five transports and three MPA in May 2012, as replacements for its aged Shorts Skyvans, with its deal including personnel training. The first of its new aircraft entered the final assembly line in Spain on 27 February.

Once delivered, the new maritime patrol platforms will undertake reconnaissance and anti-piracy missions around the Gulf of Hormuz and other coastal regions, and conduct anti-pollution and exclusive economic zone patrols.



Peter Foster



An original 16 Skyvans were introduced by Oman from the late 1960s, with its fleet having been reduced to a current strength of five by 2009, operating with the air force's 5 Sqn from Salalah. Three of these were modified locally to perform maritime patrol and reconnaissance duties, with the Seavan aircraft (one pictured above) flown from Seeb by 2 Sqn.

Les USA sur le point de vendre pour 2,1 mds USD d'armes à Oman


AFP | 21/05/2013 | 12h54

Les États-Unis sont sur le point de conclure une vente d'armes à Oman estimée à 2,1 milliards de dollars, portant sur la livraison d'un système de défense aérien, ont indiqué mardi des responsables américains.

L'un des objectifs principaux du voyage du secrétaire d'État américain John Kerry à Mascate est d'approuver la lettre d'intention signée entre Oman et l'industriel américain Raytheon avant la finalisation du contrat, ont-ils précisé à la presse à bord de l'avion transportant M. Kerry pour sa nouvelle tournée au Proche-Orient.

En effet, Raytheon est le fabricant du Patriot. Les F16 ont été signé en 2011 pour une livraison en 2014. Ne reste donc que la DCA.

Joint Statement by the United States and the Government of the Sultanate of Oman


(Source: US State Department; issued May 22, 2013)



WASHINGTON, DC --- The Governments of the Sultanate of Oman and the United States of America are pleased to announce a deal for the acquisition of a U.S. manufactured ground based air defense system.

This system, which has been selected by the Sultanate of Oman following a thorough evaluation and assessment process, offers high levels of effectiveness, capable of meeting the operational requirements of the Royal Air Force of Oman and providing seamless air protection by virtue of its cutting edge air defense technology.

In the meantime, final negotiations on the procurement of the system are in progress with U.S. defense manufacturer Raytheon Company and a final conclusion of the deal is expected following agreements on the technical aspects of the system, through life support and maintenance and other related matters.


(EDITOR’S NOTE: The Obama administration has not notified Congress of any planned sale of ground-based air-defense systems to Oman, although it has notified plans to sell Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missiles to the United Arab Emirates and to Qatar. Patriot PAC-3 sales are also planned in the region, notably to Kuwait and these have also been offered to Qatar.
Quoting “A senior U.S. State Department official,” Reuters reported May 22 that “the deal's value is expected to be $2.1 billion, though the exact size and content were still under negotiation.” It also noted that “Oman and Raytheon did not sign a letter of intent for the arms deal during Kerry's visit ….in contrast to the predictions of U.S. officials earlier this week.)

Damen construit un trois-mâts de 87 mètres pour Oman



Voilier-école et navire de représentation diplomatique : ce sera la double vocation du futur trois-mâts de la marine omanaise. Sa quille a été posée en mars et l’entrée en vigueur du contrat vient tout juste d’être diffusée par Damen.

Le géant néerlandais de la construction navale (1,7 milliard de chiffre d’affaires) indique que le navire est livrable en août 2014. Il s’agit d’un navire à coque acier de 87 mètres de long, 11 de large, doté de trois mâts de 50 mètres en acier et aluminium. Le style général est décrit comme celui d’un navire traditionnel omanais, inspiré des clippers britanniques qui transportaient le thé au XIXe siècle. Il portera 2 700 m2 de voile. L’équipage comprendra 58 membres, en plus des 34 élèves.

La coque du navire est produite au chantier roumain de Damen à Galati. La finition du navire sera réalisée à Flessingue à partir de la fin 2013. La conception d’ensemble du navire a été confiée à Dykstra Naval Architects, cabinet néerlandais spécialisé dans les grands voiliers (dont le quatre-mâts de 141 mètres Dream Symphony en construction en Turquie ou encore le Maltese Falcon). Damen a déjà construit deux grands voiliers-écoles, le Stad Amsterdam néerlandais et le Cisne Bran
co brésilien.
