In high demand of transport capacity, Indonesia took over nine of the twelve ex-RAAF surplus C-130H's (of which the first four were donated). They carry TNI-AU serials A-1330 through A-1338, and while most TNI-AU Herk's have a camouflage livery, A-1330 through A-1335 actually got this overall grey paint scheme during refurbishment in Australia (prior delivery to Indonesia). All have now been repainted to the camo style so I was lucky to catch this one while it was still grey. It is assigned to the 3rd (new) C-130 Skadron Udara 33 at Makassar, along with A-1315, A-1323, A-1330 and A-1338.

Delivered in July 1978. Named "Desert Dilemma" during a Middle East deployment in 2007 . Scanned with an Epson V700 flatbed scanner.

A97-003 was delivered in July 1978. In October 2014 it was donated to the Indonesian Air Force as A-1332.
