Carries almost anything.
Almost anywhere.
When a wide variety of missions demand a plane with multiple capabilities, governments all over the world turn to the C-130 Hercules aircraft.
With a cargo capacity of 43,000 pounds, the Herc can airlift anything from trucks to tanks and set them down safely on most any type of terrain. As a tanker, it typically has a 56,000-pound capacity and the ability to refuel at jet speed—or at the lower speed of a helicopter. With its 18-hour flying capability, it can handle long endurance surveillance, reconnaissance, weather tracking and search and rescue missions.
Years of rugged service have proven its reliability. Hercules performs under the most adverse weather conditions, and it’s ready to take on any runway, from sand and gravel to snow and ice.
Despite its versatility, dependability and outstanding performance, the C-130 Hercules is surprisingly cost efficient. That's why it's used by more than 55 nations worldwide, for every type of airlift mission imaginable.
