The third C-130J has been delivered to the Luftwaffe almost a year ahead of schedule. The three KC-130J remain to be supplied until the squadron's planned FOC in 2024.

By now the he second KC-130J has had its first flight. It should be delivered in early 2024, with the final aircraft following later that year.

Looks like the first live mission of the German C-130s may be dropping aid on Gaza. The Foreign Office reportedly made a request to this effect to the Ministry of Defense yesterday. The French have already done this, so could share their experience. Apparently the Hercules is the instrument of choice for this across nations.

I assume this can't be done with Luftwaffe A400M for...., reasons?
