California National Guard by The National Guard

A U.S. Air Force C-130J assigned to the 115th Airlift Squadron lands at an improvised dirt runway during an exercise at Fort Hunter Liggett, California, September 8, 2023. The exercise, also known as Crisis Beach II, was a multi-day exercise to evaluate the 146th Airlift Wing's ability to deploy, adapt, and survive in a contested environment. Airmen participating implemented many skill sets shared from other career fields to demonstrate their ability to execute the Agile Combat Employment (ACE) model, highlighting their proactive and reactive operational strategies under simulated threat timelines in order to increase survivability while generating combat power.

Everywhere you go, always take the weather with you... by Treflyn Lloyd-Roberts
Via Flickr:
I think that the RIAT organisers were perhaps asking for trouble by inviting an aircraft that, according to its website, is used to "track and research tropical cyclones and hurricanes"... Aircraft: US Air Force Lockheed Martin WC-130J Weatherbird 96-5300, operated by 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron. Location: RAF Fairford, Gloucestershire. Random Song Reference: "Weather With You", Crowded House.

On this day 68 years ago the Lockheed C-130 Hercules performed its first flight.
The Lockheed C-130 Hercules is an American four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft designed and built 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 versatile airframe has found uses in other roles, including as a gunship (AC-130), for airborne assault, search and rescue, scientific research support, weather reconnaissance, aerial refueling, maritime patrol, and aerial firefighting. It is now the main tactical airlifter for many military forces worldwide. More than 40 variants of the Hercules, including civilian versions marketed as the Lockheed L-100, operate in more than 60 nations.
The C-130 entered service with the U.S. in 1956, followed by Australia and many other nations. During its years of service, the Hercules has participated in numerous military, civilian and humanitarian aid operations. In 2007, the C-130 became the fifth aircraft to mark 50 years of continuous service with its original primary customer, which for the C-130 is the United States Air Force. The C-130 Hercules is the longest continuously produced military aircraft at more than 60 years, with the updated Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules currently being produced.
