The aircraft also features fully integrated defensive systems, low-power color radar, digital moving map display, new turboprop engines with six-bladed all-composite propellers and a digital autopilot. The C-130J/J-30 also includes improved fuel, environmental and ice-protection and an enhanced ...
In the 1970s, Lockheed proposed a C-130 variant with turbofan engines rather than turboprops, but the US Air Force preferred the takeoff performance of the existing aircraft. In the 1980s, the C-130 was intended to be replaced by the Advanced Medium STOL Transport project. The project was...
jetcollided with it over California, tearing a hole through the KC-130 and destroying both of its starboard engines. Despite rapid decompression of the fuselage, a fire on board, and abrupt fuel loss, the crew of the KC-130 landed safely in a nearby cauliflower field with no serious ...
It gave the aircraft greater range than a turbojet engine as it used less fuel.[5][6] Turboprop engines also produced much more power for their weight than piston engines. However, the turboprop configuration chosen for the T56, with the propeller connected to the compressor, had the ...
Nonetheless, the report notes that “under certain conditions” – high utilisation rates or with elevated jet fuel prices – the total cost of ownership and operation “may be less than converted narrowbody aircraft” currently used for regional freighter routes. ...
To characterize the PAHs in military aircraft emissions from different types of engines, aerosol and gas samples were separately collected downwind from aircraft with a turboprop engine (C-130H), turbojet (F-4EJ), and turbofan (F-15J). The gas-phase PAHs were determined by gas chromatography ...
The only disadvantage is the start up sequence, (maybe I am doing it wrong), but the engines come to life as soon as I move the condition levers forward, not when I press the starter buttons. That's the only thing I can find wrong with this. Well done to Captain Sim....

In the past, the Air Force attached small solid-fuel rocket engines to some C-130s. The added power allowed steep takeoffs on super short runways. C-130 "Fat Albert" Jet Assisted Take Off (JATO), NAS Miramar Air show The Hercules wasn’t designed to land on aircraft carriers. They’...
