BlueAngels Fat Albert C-130J Super Hercules the U.S. Army’s 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne), conducting a HALO jump

Teamwork and precision. 🎯

We recently had the opportunity to work with theU.S. Army’s 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne), conducting a HALO jump out of the back of our C-130J Super Hercules, better known as Fat Albert.

Exercises like this show the joint interoperability of the U.S. military, allowing us to accomplish missions in a wide-variety of situations.

USAF 166th Airlift Wing Maintenance Group (MXG) team painted the new graphics on one of our C-130H3 tactical airlifters.

NEW CASTLE AIR NATIONAL GUARD BASE, Del. — Every few decades an air wing updates its aircraft graphics making this is an historic event for the 166th Airlift Wing. After the 166th Maintenance Group (MXG) team reviewed several designs, they decided on this one. The new design modernizes our “brand” and will be seen everywhere our mission takes us. On Monday 25 March 2024, we photographed the MXG section as they masked and painted the new graphics on one of our C-130H3 tactical airlifters.166th Airlift Win VIA FACEBOOK
