C-130 Hercules / Spectre Gunships (multiple)

I have photographed these Lockheed C-130 Hercules examples at several museums and events. Among these are 6 examples of the Spectre side-firing gunships.

I have also photographed the special US Navy Blue Angels support aircraft known as Fat Albert which flies under the US Marine Corps banner.
