C-130Js weather the storm
C-130J Super Hercules from the 317th Airlift Group sit on the flightline during a storm Sept. 18, 2012, at Dyess Air Force Base, Texas. Dyess recently received its 23rd of 28 C-130Js. The C-130J incorporates state-of-the-art technology to reduce manpower requirements, lower operating and support costs, and provides life-cycle cost savings over earlier C-130 models. Compared to older C-130s, the J-model climbs faster and higher, flies farther at a higher cruise speed, and takes off and lands in a shorter distance. Once the final aircraft is delivered, Dyess will be home to the largest C-130J fleet in the world. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Damon Kasberg/ Released)
