Lockheed C-130 Hercules

The legacy C/KC-130T Hercules is a medium-sized multi-role, multi-mission transport aircraft supporting U.S. Navy operations world-wide. Naval Reserve C/KC-130T aircraft fulfill the Navy Unique Fleet Essential Airlift mission to provide the last logistic mile in support operations to forward deployed Naval Forces. Navy Test Wing KC-130Ts provide airborne flight test support for test and evaluation programs and Naval Land/Sea Test Range surveillance and clearance missions. The Navy has modified most of the four bladed legacy C/KC-130T aircraft with an eight bladed NP-2000 propeller system. Marine Corps divested of all KC-130T aircraft in 2021.
