$NP2000 propeller system upgrade for C-130 The Collins NP2000 propeller system upgrades the C-130H aircraft with proven benefits that, previously, only a new aircraft could provide, for less cost. Benefits like greater reliability to help cut maintenance costs in half, and up to 20% greater thrust that enables take-offs from runways that are approximately 300 meters shorter.
