This was the second C-130B. It was at first a JC-130B, equpped with trailing hooks to 'snag' the parachutes of film cannisters dropped from space by satellites. It was later used by the 6514th Test Squadron here at Hill AFB to support various test programmes at the Utah Test and Training Range. It has JATO bottle mount points.
