The 815th Airlift Squadron, "Flying Jennies", of the Air Force Reserve Command operate the C-130J Super Hercules from Keesler AFB, Mississippi. Transitioning from earlier H-models, the Jennies use the upgraded C-130J for tactical airlift, airdrop, and humanitarian missions worldwide. With more powerful engines, modern avionics, and improved performance, the J-model enhances the squadron's ability to deliver personnel, cargo, and relief supplies into austere or forward operating locations. The Flying Jennies regularly support joint exercises, contingency operations, and stateside disaster response. Their close association with the co-located 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron adds unique mission synergy at Keesler. Designed to function as a troop, medical evacuation and cargo transport aircraft, the C-130 Hercules was first flown on August 23rd, 1954. Built by Lockheed and capable of over 40,000 lbs of payload, this four-engine turboprop aircraft is quite possibly the most versatile tactical transport in existence. Its modern roles include airlift and airdrop, electronic surveillance, search and rescue, space-capsule recovery, helicopter refueling and aerial attack. Capable of takeoffs and landings from unprepared runways, the C-130 has even landed and taken off from a carrier deck without benefit of arresting gear or catapults. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
