Recent images from Reuters show that at least five of the ten MC-130Js deployed to Puerto Rico are in full CR-2 configuration.
Capability Release 2 (CR-2) includes:
- AN/APQ-187 Silent Knight Radar
- Honeywell JetWave SATCOM
- AN/ALQ-251 Radio Frequency Countermeasures (RFCM)
Combined imagery from a Sentinel-2 pass (27 Dec) and recent photos posted to social media show that the US Air Force has increased its presence at Rafael Hernández International Airport (BQN/TJBQ) in Puerto Rico with an additional five MC-130Js, which arrived a few days ago.
