This lovely camouflaged Herk was accepted by the Royal Australian Air Force in August 1978. It flew with 36sq and was moved to 37sq (as pictured) when the RAAF C-17As became operational. The entire fleet of RAAF C-130Hs was retired by late November 2012. The withdrawn from use A97-006 was placed into storage at RAAF Richmond (Australia). The aircraft was sold to Indonesia as A-1330 and was delivered in November 2013. The RAAF Hercules' were often seen at Kandahar, flying logistic missions for the Australian military deployed to Afghanistan, as well as supporting their special ops.

You can see how well the camouflage blends with the colours of the Australian bush. I think this aircraft is in Melbournee for fitting with the Echidna EWSP system.
