Detailed explanation-1: -While the beloved C-130 could have been called Griffin, the Hercules nickname stuck and is still being used 66 years later.
Detailed explanation-2: -C-130H: 23, 000 feet (7, 077 meters) with 42, 000 pounds (19, 090 kilograms) payload. Maximum Load: C-130E/H/J: 6 pallets or 72 litters or 16 CDS bundles or 90 combat troops or 64 paratroopers, or a combination of any of these up to the cargo compartment capacity or maximum allowable weight.
Detailed explanation-3: -Landing a C-130 at the ranges and payloads discussed earlier requires a runway length of at least 5, 000 feet and a runway width of at least 80 feet. At these runway lengths and widths, the C-130 landing weight could be 155, 000 pounds. Landings on shorter or narrower runways would require an assault landing.
Detailed explanation-4: -Those who design, build, fly, support and maintain a Hercules often say the plane is without a doubt the world’s most proven workhorse-and for good reason. To date, more than 2, 500 C-130s have been ordered and/or delivered to 63 nations around the world.
