From what I understand, a Darlington transistor is basically 2 transistors in one, where the second one amplifies the first. So even though this particular part, the D16P1, is long gone (can't even find them on ebay), there should be a way to recreate its functionality with two readily available transistors based on the specs, right?
Here's the best datasheet I could find:

How would I go about finding which two transistors I could use for this? Or is there a single-package Darlington with similar specs still being made that could substitute? I looked at the MPSA12 and similar ones, which are pretty commonly used, but most of the specs weren't anything alike, and I don't know which specs are important and which aren't.
