In-flight refueling employs either the aerial refueling probe installation system (ARPIS) or universal aerial refueling receptacle slipway installation (UARRSI) system to allow the receiving aircraft to extend its range or increase loiter time.

UARRSI provides MC-130P and HC-130P,H,(N) aircraft the ability to receive fuel in-flight from KC-135 and KC-10 aerial tankers.

Additional options include defensive systems such as directed infrared countermeasures (DIRCM), the UARRSI boom capable in-flight refueling system, Block 8.1 upgrades, fighter, helicopter and vertical lift aerial refueling probe and drogue system, the ECHS and increased ullage for extended range/loiter.

2009年10月14日 · I would be very interested to know which versions of the Hercules are equipped for in-flight refueling with an UARRSI (Universal Aerial Refueling Receptacle Slipway Installation) or a nose probe. Up to know this is what I've found: UARRSI equipped. -MC-130E Combat Talon I. -MC-130H Combat Talon II. -MC-130P Combat Shadow. -MC …

2007年11月14日 · The UARRSI is the refuelling receptacle installed on top of the KC-45 that allows it to receive fuel. This allows a tanker returning to base to off-load any excess fuel to the incoming tanker thus saving fuel and costs.

This ARSAG Boom/Receptacle Guidance document provides users with additional information not contained in NATO Standards ATP-3.3.4.2 (formerly ATP-56B) and ATP-3.3.4.5 (STANAG 7191) It addresses the background of the requirements, lessons learned and recommendations for future improvements which will be useful for development of boom and/or recep...

2011年4月4日 · The UARRSI ensures a connection between refueling airframes and the C-17 or C-5 fuel systems. It has a 4-inch diameter fuel intake manifold that connects to a boom from a refueling airframe, and this connection happens in mid-air.

From what two hydrallic systems does the UARRSI system get pressure? What is needed to open and close the receptacle door? Nothing is needed to open the door. THe slip stream will push it open. Hyraulic power is required to close it. What provides flexibility to the UARRSI pipes in the cargo compartment?

INSTALLATION (UARRSI) 1. Background. UARRSI provides MC-130P and HC-130 aircraft the ability to receive fuel in-flight from KC-135 and KC-10 aerial tankers. UARRSI greatly increases fuel offload capability to rescue and special operations helicopters, their endurance in Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR) missions and their range for
