 The
C-40A Clipper provides critical logistics support to the Navy. It's
flight deck features a flight management computer system with an integrated
GPS. It is compatible with future GATM/FANS operating environment (RNP-1).
It is RVSM capable. It has the Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidnace
System II on board. It also has an enhanced ground proximity warning
system, predictive wind shear, head-up display and TACAN/UHF/IFF functions.
The U.S. Naval Reserve - which will operate and maintain the aircraft
- is the first customer for the newest member of the Boeing Next-Generation
737 family and is purchasing the aircraft to replace its fleet of aging
C-9 Skytrains. Currently, the Naval Reserve provides 100 percent of
the Navy's worldwide in-theater medium and heavy airlift.
