Under the maintenance training contract, Lockheed Martin Australia together with Lockheed Martin Mission Systems and Training, will update two classrooms and add two developer stations to RAAF Base Richmond. The developer stations and modernized classrooms will give RAAF C-130J-30 training staff the ability to modify and update the training courseware through the aircraft lifecycle.
