Some 2,500 hulls have been built or are on order.
#C130 cockpit series
Also, C-130A model production ended at c/n 3231, and a new series for the B-model began at c/n 3501, the only time a large block was skipped for an upgraded airframe. ( Lars Olausson, Lockheed Hercules Production List, 1954–2008, April 2007, page 2.) There have been a small number of c/ns assigned to airframes on order that were not built for various reasons. The second prototype, c/n 1002, was salvaged at Indianapolis, Indiana in April 1962. The first prototype, c/n 1001, was disassembled at Warner Robins AFB in October 1960. Production Hercules have all been built at the Lockheed-Marietta, Georgia plant, and began their c/ns at 3001 (USAF 53-3129, still extant at the Air Force Armament Museum).
#C130 cockpit serial numbers
The two prototype YC-130s, AF Serial Numbers 53-3396 and 53-3397, were built at the Burbank, California plant, and were given c/ns 10. By the nature of the Hercules' worldwide service, the pattern of losses provides a barometer of global hotspots over the past fifty years. This is thought to be a complete listing through July 1, 2012, but omits the JC-130A ( 53-3130, c/n 3002) test airframe that was tested to destruction and airframes retired or withdrawn from service. United States Air Force Hercules (A/B/E-models), as of 1989, had an overall attrition rate of 5 percent as compared to 1 to 2 percent for commercial airliners in the U.S., according to the NTSB, 10 percent for B-52 bombers, and 20 percent for fighters ( F-4, F-111), trainers ( T-37, T-38), and helicopters ( H-3). įrom 1967 to 2005, the Royal Air Force (RAF) recorded an accident rate of about one Hercules loss per 250,000 flying hours.
Not all US C-130 losses have been crashes, 29 of those listed below were destroyed on the ground by enemy action or other non-flying accidents. More than 15 percent of the approximately 2,350 Lockheed C-130 Hercules production hulls have been lost, including 70 by the US Air Force and the United States Marine Corps during the Vietnam War.
