A well sterilized fuselage.

Delivered new to the TNI-AU in December 1979 in a grey / white livery, becoming the 1st C-130H operated by the Indonesian AF. Two more (A-1316, c/n 4840 and A-1323, c/n 4899) followed, while a single C-130H-MP (Maritime Patrol) serialled AI-1322 (c/n 4898) joined the fleet in late 1981. It was not until 2015 that more C-130H's followed, when nine ex RAAF C-130H's (becoming A-1330 through A-1338) were taken on strength, a process completed by February 2020. A-1315 shown here has since been assigned to Skuadron Udara 33, the TNI-AU's 3rd Hercules squadron based at and operating out of Makassar.

In late 1980, five stretched C-130H-30's were delivered to the TNI-AU (A-1317 through A-1321). Then in May of 1982, the airframe pictured here became the TNI-AU's sixth C-130H-30. It too got serial A-1321(2.), while the original "A-1321" (c/n 4870) became A-1341 to serve with VIP squadron 17 at Halim. All six C-130H-30 remain in service at the time of upload, while two of the six "civilian" L-100-30's transferred from Merpati and Pelita to the TNI-AU in the late 1990's were lost in accidents. A-1321 is seen here in the two tone brown camo worn by most indonesian C-130's in the early 2000's.

This Hercules is one used by special forces. Hence the pods at the wing tips. It was w/o in 2006.
