Ilyushin Il-76 to be specific.

New There are lots of C-130 pictures like that, but the C-130 is a prop-plane.
E.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aI9OPkfXBlM (0:20)

I wonder if someone airbrushed the jet over some C-130 images...

It's probably real. I'd imagine various air forces use similar tactics to fend off shoulder launched missile attacks during takeoff/landing.

I just found it amusing that our OP (Original Patriot, to which RC was referring) managed to pick that one image of a foreign plane given the chorus of similar images available of genuine 'murican A/C-130 plumage.

New Dunno.
It looks too much like this MC-130H to me to be a coincidence. (Like maybe RC's picture was taken just a few frames later in the same flight.)



FWIW.

It's kinda interesting that neither Tineye nor Goggle's photo search can turn up RC's image elsewhere. It's a mystery! :-)

Cheers,
Scott.

New Right. But it's not that hard to swap in a different plane. That's my only observation. :-)
