Malaysia C-130 question
While looking at photos I noticed that three Malaysia KC-130H's do not have the refuel tanks anymore. I was wondering what JYAI model would best reflect this. Would it be the regular C-130H model? Or is one of the other JYAI H models more accurate?
These are the planes that were painted using the JYAI KC-130H.

The L-100 model does not have tanks.

Re: Malaysia C-130 question
I think what Joseph means is that Malaysia has removed the refuelling pods from their KC-130H aircraft, not the external tanks. So the regular C-130H model would do.
Edit: looking at the photos, it would appear that these are C-130H3s (the last production run of C-130Hs) with the square para door window. That's the only detail I can see that is slightly unusual. I don't know if any of John's models reflect this configuration - or whether anyone would notice!

Re: Malaysia C-130 question
I would just use a C-130H as the aircraft retain the wing tanks and it's just the removal of the refueling pods

Re: Malaysia C-130 question
Thanks guys! And yes, I did mean that Malaysia removed the refueling pods from their KC-130H aircraft.
