Although the C-130 first entered service nearly 70 years ago, the airframe has been continually updated, culminating with the delivery of the J model in 1999. Watch the teaser

Since the introduction of the new FLIR system, we continue to texture ground units and ships to match real life FLIR signatures. We also aim to adjust aircraft FLIR signatures at different times of day and in varying thermal conditions. FLIR rendering of terrain elements such as building windows and civilian traffic are also being improved. There are many more improvements taking place, and we will keep you updated. Meanwhile, we really look forward to your feedback.
