DELIVER THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE.

Tanks. Trucks. Supplies. The Lockheed C-130 Hercules airlifter carries them all. Equally important, it delivers them even when there's no place or no time to land.

The C-130's Low Altitude Parachute Extraction System (LAPES) puts pallet- mounted cargo down with pinpoint precision. Its powerful turboprop engines combine outstanding fuel efficiency with the low-speed responsiveness required for the LAPES mission. The aircraft's exceptional carrying capacity lets you move forces quickly throughout your theatre of operations.

When you're trying to catch the enemy off guard, count on the versatile C-130 Hercules airlifter. Its abilities have been surprising the world for years.
