Marinci penzionisu KC-130T,a prelaze na modernizovane KC-130J
Citat:Modernization of the U.S. Marine Corps aerial refueler and transport fleet has reached a milestone with the retirement of the service’s last ‘legacy’ Hercules, a KC-130T.
The Marines flew the ‘legacy’ Hercules as their primary multi-mission transport for six decades but, with this latest move, have now standardized on the new-generation KC-130J.
The last of the Marine KC-130Ts, aircraft 105, had been in service with Marine Aerial Refueler Transport Squadron 452 (VMGR-452), the “Yankees,” a Marine Corps Reserve unit. It was handed over to the U.S. Navy’s Fleet Logistics Support Squadron 55 (VR-55) on April 14 in a ceremony. The event was announced yesterday by Naval Air Systems Command and the Navy will continue to operate the type.

Afrikanci kubure sa rezervnim delovima kako za avione,tako i za helikopterre
State-owned arms manufacturer Denel cannot afford to supply spares and components to keep the South African Air Force’s (SAAF) aircraft operational
Citat:According to Malakoane’s letter, the aircraft types most affected are the “workhorses” that have been operating for the past 57 years — the Hercules C-130 transport aircraft, the Rooivalk attack helicopters and the Oryx medium transport helicopters. At the same time, the air force is experiencing “challenges” because of Denel’s inability to calibrate and maintain the Gripen and Hawk fighter jets test benches, which negatively affect aircraft serviceability.

Pominjali smo sličnu varijantu na temi Crteži, ideje i neostvareni projekti...Skywhaler ::... и још једна нереализована варијанта Херкулеса...
Citat:Between 1964 and 1973, Lockheed-Georgia Company looked at several amphibious configurations of the C-130 Hercules. In 1968, a US Navy study contract resulted in a one-sixth scale, radio controlled model that was used as a development tool. Called Hercules-On-Water, or HOW, the design kept much of the original C-130 configuration, but this version used a retractable hydro-ski beneath the boat hull-shaped fuselage for takeoff and landing. The design’s Allison T56 engines were inverted and placed on top of the wing to take the intakes and propellers out of the water spray, similar to the configuration used on the P-3 Orion maritime patrol aircraft. No production contracts were received and the Hercules-On-Water project was shelved. https://www.mycity-military.com/Ostalo-3/Crtezi-id.....l#p1848126
