Philippine Air Force C-130 "Hercules" cargo plane with tail number 4704 left for Manila last Wednesday after completing maintenance work in California, according to a press advisory from the Philippine Embassy in United States.
This is one of only two PAF C-130s used for troop transport and heavy lift missions.
The PAF C-130 is back in Manila after scheduled maintenance work was finished at the British Aerospace facility in Mojave, California.
Recently, the PAF sent MG-520 “Defender” helicopter gunships to the US for mandatory overhaul of Allison turbine engines.
It may look that this is a very small thing but still this is part of the Armed Forces of the Philippines modernization budget.
Big bird, Welcome home!
