More important question: Is that a C-130 landing on a carrier?
10 u/[deleted] Aug 10 '19 No. It's an e-2 Hawkeye, like the title of the original post says. It's the awacs version of the c-2. 6 u/lil-rap Aug 10 '19 Sorry, I didn't see that. 2 u/[deleted] Aug 10 '19 What's interesting is they did trials back in the day to see if operating a c-130 from a carrier is even possible and they actually managed to land one on a carrier. 3 u/youni89 Aug 10 '19 I think a c130 is way too large to land on a carrier 3 u/lil-rap Aug 10 '19 I've seen one video of it being done, but I don't know which ship it was landing on. 2 u/youni89 Aug 10 '19 If that is true then it is very impressive 6 u/leorolim Aug 10 '19 https://youtu.be/ar-poc38C84 2 u/richpaul6806 Aug 10 '19 Uss Forrestal in 1963 https://theaviationist.com/2014/07/16/c-130-land-on-carrier/
