The complete,\ncorrected release follows:\nMexico Expands C-130J Super Hercules Fleet with Second Aircraft\nBETHESDA, Md., Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Fuerza Aérea Mexicana\n(FAM) recently announced the acquisition of a second Lockheed Martin\n(NYSE: LMT) C‑130J‑30 Super Hercules tactical airlifter, solidifying\nMexico's role as a regional leader in air mobility. The addition of the second\nSuper Hercules follows the first aircraft acquisition announced in\nJanuary 2026, which made Mexico the first nation in Latin America to join\nthe global Super Hercules fleet.\n\nA long‑time Hercules operator, the FAM is recapitalizing its legacy fleet\nwith the C‑130J‑30 Super Hercules–a stretch variant that adds 15 feet\nof cargo space. The aircraft provides increased power, range, fuel efficiency\nand payload capacity, enabling the FAM to meet any tactical airlift\nrequirement while leveraging decades of operational, maintenance and logistics\nexperience with the Hercules.\n\nThe Super Hercules provides the FAM with what no other tactical airlifter\ncan deliver: certified multi‑mission versatility, proven operational\nperformance, a true global presence, known capabilities and trusted\nreliability – all backed by an enterprise‑wide support network that\nensures sustained readiness for decades to come.\n\nThe expanded capability arrives at a critical moment. Shortly after the twin\nearthquakes that struck Venezuela, C-130 Hercules aircraft were employed to\ndeliver emergency supplies, medical aid and personnel to the disaster area.\nThe second C-130J-30 aircraft will double that response capability, allowing\nMexico to sustain rapid humanitarian assistance throughout Latin America and\nreinforce its strategic airlift role in support of regional security.\n\n\"The C‑130J is the backbone of global airlift, and Mexico's continued\ninvestment underscores confidence in a platform that delivers decades of\noperational readiness, unmatched versatility and seamless interoperability\nwith U.S. and allied forces,\" said Trish Pagan, vice president of Lockheed\nMartin's Air Mobility & Maritime Missions. \"We are proud to support Mexico\nas it sets a new benchmark for tactical airlift in Latin America.\"\n\nFor more than five decades the C‑130 Hercules has been a cornerstone of\nMexico's response to natural disasters, military operations and other critical\nmissions. The aircraft remains a powerful symbol of Mexico's commitment to\nregional security and cooperation, and the expanded fleet highlights the\nlong‑standing partnership between Lockheed Martin and the FAM.\n\nMexico's expansion of the C‑130J fleet demonstrates a clear momentum for\nmodern air mobility in Latin America. By investing in the most advanced\nHercules ever built, the country not only enhances its own operational reach\nbut also creates a platform for greater cooperation with U.S. and allied\nforces, ensuring a coordinated response to security and humanitarian\nchallenges for years to come.\n\nEditor's note: The earthquake‑relief mission in Venezuela was carried out\nwith earlier‑model C‑130 Hercules aircraft, not with a C‑130J‑30. The\nsecond C‑130J‑30 aircraft will double Mexico's C-130 response capacity and\nstrengthen regional humanitarian and security support.\n\nAbout the C-130J Super Hercules\nThe C-130J Super Hercules is the latest generation of the legendary C-130\nHercules. Built with advanced avionics, increased range and speed, and\nenhanced survivability, the C-130J is certified across 20 different mission\nsets — including airdrop, search and rescue, firefighting, medevac, ISR,\nspecial operations, among others. It is the only tactical airlifter with a\nglobal fleet of more than 570 aircraft and continues to serve as the backbone\nof air mobility worldwide.\n\nFor additional information, visit our website:\nhttps://www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/products/c130.html\n(https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4780567-1&h=896843901&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lockheedmartin.com%2Fen-us%2Fproducts%2Fc130.html&a=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lockheedmartin.com%2Fen-us%2Fproducts%2Fc130.html)\n.\n\nAbout Lockheed Martin\nLockheed Martin is a global defense technology company driving innovation and\nadvancing scientific discovery.
