The 61st Airlift Squadron at Little Rock AFB, Ark., received the last of its 14 C-130Js on June 20. Air Mobility Command boss Gen. Carlton Everhart ferried the aircraft from the Lockheed Martin facility in Marietta, Ga., according to a Lockheed release. The base, which is also home to the 41st Airlift Squadron, has 28 total C-130Js, one of the service’s largest fleets of Super Hercs.
