Indonesia takes delivery of first C-130J

Lockheed Martin, the American aerospace and defence company, has delivered the first of five C-130J-30 cargo planes to the Indonesian Air Force (TNI-AU). The ceremony commemorated a new era in Hercules operations for the long-time C-130 operator, as the new C-130J-30s offer increased cargo capacity, speed, range, power, performance, and lower operating costs. This will support the TNI-AU’s wide range of mission requirements for decades to come.
