The C-130
The Lockheed C-130 Hercules is an American 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, medevac, and cargo transport aircraft. The C-130 entered service with the U.S. in 1956. The C-130 Hercules is the longest continuously produced military aircraft at over 60 years, with the updated Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules currently being produced.

The C-130 in the RoCAF
On June 18, 1984, the Reagan administration of the US informed the Congress of the proposed sale of 12 C-130H to Taiwan), which was later approved by the Congress. Delivery commenced in 1986. In the early 1990s, four additional C-130H (1313 to 1316) were ordered and they arrived in Taiwan in January 1995. A contract for four more C-130H (1317 to 1320) was signed in 1997.
