LARS R/T (P/N 282650-3, NSN 5821-01-661-5866SO) [HC-130J]


The LARS R/T is a critical search and rescue component containing a fully synthesized UHF receiver/transmitter that provides voice communication, range, and direction measurements to interrogate survival radios of downed airmen.

Cubic responded in an email on 30 September 2025 that they are not interested in selling data to the Government. Cubic is the only qualified source capable of repairing the LARS due to their proprietary rights.
