C 130 J Super Hercules History:
The Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules is the world's most advanced tactical airlifter. Designed and developed with mission flexibility in mind − combat delivery, air-to-air refueling, special operations, disaster relief and humanitarian missions − the C-130J has a unique mix of agility and performance to consistently operate at very high tempo operations efficiently and reliably. The aircraft features new Rolls-Royce Allison AE2100 turboprops with six- bladed composite scimitar propellers, digital avionics, reduced crew requirements, increased reliability and lower operating costs.
The C-130J incorporates state-of-the-art technology to reduce manpower requirements, lower operating and support cost and life cycle cost savings compared to earlier C-130 models. The C-130 can accommodate 92 combat troops. It also flies at a higher cruise speed and lands in a shorter distance. The first delivery of the C- 130J began in 1999. The USAF was the largest operator ordering the aircraft in increased numbers.
As of December 2006, a total procurement of C-130J reached 186 orders. There's another purchase of six C-130J aircraft upon request by the Indian Air Force. By mid 2007, the C-130J sales will be finalized.
