The C-130 is seen in the following campaign missions:

• In "Operation 40", the Op 40 have to escape in a C-130 through heavy gunfire on the airfield. After the plane begins to show damage on the runway, Mason jumps off the plane to take out trucks blocking the end of the runway, allowing it to take off.

Call of Duty: Black Ops IIEdit

C-130 is briefly mentioned by Frank Woods in opening cutscene to level Pyrrhic Victory.

"This baby, it shits out a film canister 12 miles up, then a C-130 comes by and... pfft... snags it at about 30,000 feet"

— Frank Woods

TriviaEdit

• In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer, if the player looks at the back of the plane as the C-130 drops the crates, the player can see the crates spawn behind the plane.
• The C-130 in multiplayer is not a solid object, as a Predator Missile will fly right through it.
• Even though it is clearly a C-130 crashing in the campaign mission "Exodus", Cpl. Dunn calls it an AC-130 instead.
• The C-130 in multiplayer used for the emergency airdrop killstreak is a reskinned AC-130, retaining its outer guns.
• In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, in the map Outpost, there an unfinished C-130 close to the Spetsnaz spawn.
• When the Assault Juggernaut or Recon Juggernaut is being delivered via care package in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, the C-130 delivers it instead of the Little Bird.
• In "Goalpost", by the looks of the interior computers, intel item and scattered photographs, it can be infered that it is really an EC-130 Compass Call, the electronic warfare variant of the C-130, was shot down.
