The C-135 Super Hercules is LRR's next generation airlift platform. The refit gives the old C-130 more cargo room, more powerful engines, and a greater range than all previous models.
The C-135 will replace the Allison Turboprops with Lunkwill&Fook G-88 filtered high-efficency turboprop engines, which cut down on the greenhouse gas emissions and also increase the C-135's range by 200 miles more than the origional.
Flight Control will also be updated. The C-135 will have flaps that extend to 75 degrees, and there will be limited fly-by-wire systems, mostly involved in stall/spin recovery. The new flaps will cut landing distance down by 60 feet.
Cargo carrying capacity is the main point of change, the origional 41 feet being extended to over 50 feet by 9 feet by 12 feet, making it just large enough to accomodate a CB 90 assault boat.
The C-135 will retain the excellent unprepared field characteristics as its predecessor, as well as the ability to be converted into various different roles. The C-135 will have an improved ECM, and will incorperate the latest in thermal cloaking technology. The LRRAF plans to upgrade all 60 of its C-130s to C-135 standard.

Also slated for upgrade is LRR's large fleet of over 70 Sea Knight helicopters. The Super Sea Knight upgrade will give them a new lease on life for at least another 40 years.
Engines will be upgraded to low-emission high-efficency Lunkwill&Fook G-73s, four in total, and in-flight refueling capability will be added.
Avionics will also be updated, with the addition of a multi-search radar capable of detection of ground vehicles, conventional aircraft, and missiles at ranges of up to 70 kilometers. Thermal imaging and LANTERN systems will also be added. A top-of-the-line ECM will also be incorperated into the new Super Sea Knight.
Flight Control will be aided by limited Fly-By-Wire systems, as well as the addition of LCD displays in the cockpit.
Armerment mounting capacity will be increased, allowing the Super Sea King to mount up to four Stinger missiles, up to four rocket pods, as well as Eryx ATGMs on four side weapons mounts. Two dual 7.62mm machine gun mounts will also be added on window mounts.

The fleet of BO-105s will also be upgraded to BO-105-2 standard.

The Super Gripen is due to replace the old F-104s as LRR's main interceptor type.
The Super Gripen is a highly modified version of the origional. It incorperates many design changes and enhancements.
Powerplant has been enhanced with the addition of one Lunkwill&Fook G-90 low-emission jet engine, which adds early 100 miles to the aircraft's range. The engine also incorperates the latest in thermal cloaking technology.
Flight Control has been enhanced with the addition of a thrust-vectoring system, allowing for this already highly agile fighter to make even more wild manouvers. This increased capacity for manouvering has been supplemented by the S-6 ejection seat, which features shock absorbers to help the pilot cope with higher G-loads. The ejection seat is a zero-zero unit, which can get the pilot out of the aircraft in under two seconds.
Avionics have been enhanced with the addition of a Red Queen Mk. 2 multi-track radar capable of detecting stealth at 50km, and all other targets, including missiles, at well over 100km. The improved ECM is able to defeat all modern AAMs 69% of the time.
Weapons capacity has also been improved. The Super Gripen can carry the full line of LRR air-to-air munitions, as well as the RBS 15 anti-ship missile. The Super Gripen has eight weapons stations.

LRR has recently taken another look at the Alpha Jets due to be phased out of LRRAF service, and we have come up with a new use for these aircraft.
The Alpha 2 foreward Support Jet is LRR's main light attack aircraft, used to provide close support to front-line troops, whereas the Jaguar is more of an interdiction aircraft.
The Alpha 2 will be given the same engines as the Super Jaguar, two Lunkwill&Fook J-79 low-emission high-efficency jets, which incorperate the latest in thermal cloaking technology.
Avionics will be enhanced with the addition of LCD cockpit displays, as well as a new Q-6 ground tracking radar, capable of detecting ground targets at over 100km and air targets at over 50km, and missiles at over 70km.
Flight control will be enhanced with the addition of full fly-by-wire control systems.
Weapons capacity will be increased by 500lbs.

The ECM systems on the Cougar battlefield AWACS will also be upgraded.

LRR has recently been working on a new wheeled APC to replace the BTR-90s currently in service. The WISV, or wheeled infantry support vehicle, will replace the BTRs in service with front line units within one (RL) week.
They are powered by a Lunkwill&Fook Hydrogen Fuel Cell, which can drive the WISV to a maximum road speed of over 100kph.
The WISV is fully amphibious, NBC protected, and can withstand 105mm close-range cannon hits. It is equipped with thermal imaging systems, laser rangefinders, and some are equipped with battlefield radar systems.
The WISV can be armed with a 25mm cannon, a 105mm howitzer, or an AMOS mortar system, and can safely transport up to 11 fully equipped troops.
The WISV is transportable by the C-135.

Also being looked at is a new aircraft carrier for the LRRN, which would carry Yak-141s and other STOL/VTOL aircraft, and provide air cover for small expeditionary groups.
These things might be for sale if interest is shown.
