I was at the Cebu airport in the Philippines last year, and the Philippine Air force had several C-130s that they were using for spare parts. Good to see them getting some new aircraft. They also had several Iroquois (Huey's) that were being used for parts as well.

The C-130J is a new build aircraft. Up rated engines, 6 blade props, increased cargo capacity, modern avionics. I think they are still built at Lockheed-Martins facility in Georgia. The C-130A models first rolled off the production line in 1954, and the C-130J is still in production today.
