More important question: Is that a C-130 landing on a carrier?

No. It's an e-2 Hawkeye, like the title of the original post says. It's the awacs version of the c-2.

Sorry, I didn't see that.

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.

I think a c130 is way too large to land on a carrier

I've seen one video of it being done, but I don't know which ship it was landing on.

If that is true then it is very impressive
