Title: C-130 Hercules – Lockheed’s Military Air Transport and Its Variants
Author: DOYLE DAVID
The Lockheed C-130 Hercules has been in continuous production for over six decades, longer than any other military aircraft in the world, and no end of production is yet in sight. The Hercules has been a part of US combat operations since Vietnam, and the airframe, which began life as a simple transport, has been adapted to a variety of roles, including gunship, electronic warfare, refueling, and rescue. This book chronicles the development and use of the Hercules from concept to combat. Through dozens of archival photos, many never before published, as well as detailed photographs of some of the finest existent examples of surviving vehicles, these iconic armored fighting vehicles are explored, and their history is explained. AUTHOR: The military books by David Doyle, author of over 125 books, are noted for their thorough coverage of historic vehicles and his celebrated ability to locate scarce vintage imagery. 218 colour and b/w photographs
