The Lockheed C-130 Hercules is a four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft designed and built originally by Lockheed, now Lockheed Martin. Capable of using unprepared runways for takeoffs and landings, the C-130 was originally designed as a troop, medical evacuation, and cargo transport aircraft. The versatile airframe has found uses in a variety of other roles, including as a gunship (AC-130), for airborne assault, search and rescue, scientific research support, weather reconnaissance, aerial refueling, maritime patrol, and aerial firefighting. It is now the main tactical airlifter for many military forces worldwide. Over 40 models and variants of the Hercules serve with more than 60 nations.

    It's a very nice looking plane, but the com cool are in the wrong place, which is why no one (i think) can fly it, but if you move the wings back, we can fly it. But you did a very good job. I'm actually proud of you of how good looking this plane is but next time, before uploading check the com and col and make sure the com is behind the col. Great job anyways. :)
