C-130s are medium transport planes. They should have been out of production long ago because the C-130 - as military transport - was not a small plane. C-17s do what the C-130 did - but better. Any money wasted on C-130Js means less of the larger, faster, more efficient C-17s. Ironic, those latest built C-130s (done only for Senator pork reasons) still are not operational. Once the C-130 was a big transport. No longer. C-130s are small transport planes - as the DC-10 once was a big cargo plane.
