C-130 HERCULES . ONE AIRCRAFT, MANY CAPABILITIES. New Acquisition - Support - Sustainment WORKHORSE. RUGGED. RELIABLE. PROVEN. DEPENDABLE. VERSATILE. TOUGH. IRREPLACEABLE. For the past six decades, many words have been used to describe the C-130 HERCULES . But they all translate to the same fact: THERE IS ONLY ONE HERCULES . The C-130 goes where other aircraft don't. It supports more missions than any other aircraft in the skies. It lands where other airlifters can't. From the highest airstrip in the Himalayan Mountains to 21 full-stop landings on an aircraft carrier in the middle of the ocean . From landscapes destroyed by forces of nature to delivering life-saving supplies to people in dire circumstances.
