LM Boosts Hercules Program With Civil Order, New SOF Version
The LM-100J on display at Paris has a launch customer, and a new international version for special missions was also announced.
After some 114 copies, Lockheed ended production of the L-100 Hercules, the “civilianized” C-130, in 1992. Now the company is flight-testing a follow-on civil version of the C-130J, the latest military variant, dubbed the LM-100J. The airframe pictured above took its maiden flight last month at the company’s Marietta, Georgia, facility and soon will be joined by a second prototype.
