Thanks gentlemen.
Glad you liked it.

A new update already?
Well, here's the report on the "old 130 pack".
Took the new C-130 Pack for a test run in vpJetPack and 409.
vpJetPack:
Chape's C-130H is already in the vpJpack, but haven't encountered
any conflicts between Chapes 'H' model and the new130 pack.
409:
The new pack works but no sound for the miniguns, here's the fix:

MiniGun sounds by AIRdomination
Cheers

    Thanks to Bwf for the test in vpJetPack and 409 - information about missing sounds added to the first post.
In general, this mod was made independently, before the advent of the C-130H, so it should not conflict.

Excellent!! Finally a Herc that sits on its nose on the ramp!

Good Job!!

     Thanks to dona and MADMICK71, I hope the fixed planes are positioned normally, although there is still a small distance between the wheels of the main landing gear and the ground.
In addition, I want to say that the pack turned out to be "a little heavy", but that was the specificity of the written classes.
Now a little about the problems of mod C-130.
     I finally tried to steer by taxiing myself and tried to take off - alas, it is almost impossible in manual mode. The plane pulls very hard to the right.
What is not observed for the C-130H with its own FM.
Parent classes of C-130 family are based on FMD from B-29.
Probably fixing/adding FM will fix this problem.

Peaceful skies to all

AC130A - skins Vietnam to the Gulf War coming. Stationary C-130's sit level with no gaps in my 4,12 JTW modact version.
Using, from the command and control mod Arty(G) and ground lock to simulate the 105mm gun. Very destructive.
Artificial horizon is not working in cockpit making IFR difficult using Crtl F1 for instrumentation.

Really nice ! It deserves to be included in the next BAT update ! Fingers crossed !!!

Nice. will there be a gunsight in future for the ac-130?

Hi all!
Thanks for the feedback!
I don't want to promise anything about further work on the C-130 pack. I did not ask any of the Java experts for help, because I am not sure that I can be constantly in contact.
Unless someone takes the initiative on their own.
Simply, everything is much more complicated around than 10 years ago...
As for the cockpit, it certainly needs to be improved, and by the way, maybe there is a version with a working artificial horizon?
This made my job much easier.
Regarding the sight of the AC-130 cockpit, it seems to me that turrets with their own sights would still be more appropriate here.
As for everything else - let me suggest the following version (patch to C130J) - an upgrade of the existing C-130A/B to the C-130J version:

There are only minor visual changes here - the replacement of propellers (C-130A only) with six-blade ones (thanks to Mikoyan99 and his Grumman Hawkeye mod!).

Installation:

1. Back up the previous version.
2. Unpack and place in the folder with C-130 Family.
3. With a replacement - agree.
4. Change line in plane.properties:

C_130A    Lockheed C-130J Hercules, 1999

Peaceful skies to all

P.S.
Post edited - corrected link to version with sixbladed props (03.09.2022)
