The Lockheed C-130 Hercules, a four-engine military aircraft, was developed in the early 1950s and entered service in 1956. Lockheed aimed to present an aircraft to meet the U.S. Air Force’s need for a cargo transport aircraft with enhanced capacities. The C-130 was specifically designed for takeoffs and landings from unprepared surfaces or runways, and its adaptable airframe allowed for modifications to suit various military operations, leading to its swift success. In addition to its original purposes for troop transport, medevac, and cargo operations, the C-130 and its variants were deployed as gunships, airborne assault aircraft, and maritime patrol planes.
