The Royal New Zealand Air Force has received its fourth C-130J-30 Super Hercules aircraft, which landed at RNZAF Base Auckland, Whenuapai, in late October 2024. Bearing the registration NZ7014, the aircraft traveled over 14,000 kilometers from Georgia, USA, with stops in California, Hawaii, and American Samoa. This delivery is part of a broader effort to replace the aging C-130H fleet with five new aircraft, with the fifth and final plane expected to arrive before the end of the year.
