About the Lockheed C-130H/J Hercules

The Lockheed C-130 Hercules is one of the most successful military transport aircraft ever built, serving with air forces around the world for over seven decades. The H-model, introduced in the 1970s, became the most widely produced variant with improved engines and avionics, while the J-model represents the latest generation with advanced glass cockpit, digital systems, and more powerful Rolls-Royce AE 2100 turboprops. Capable of operating from short, unprepared runways, the C-130 excels in tactical airlift, humanitarian missions, aerial refueling, and special operations. The Hercules' distinctive four-engine profile and legendary reliability make it a favorite subject for military transport enthusiasts and modern aviation modelers.

What's Included

Eduard's CX series masks are precision-cut from thin, flexible vinyl that conforms perfectly to complex canopy curves and wheel hubs. The set typically includes canopy frame masks for both interior and exterior surfaces, wheel hub masks, and any additional glazed areas. The self-adhesive backing ensures secure placement without residue, while the material's flexibility allows it to follow compound curves without lifting or leaking paint.
