The new aircraft is flexible and part of the longer C-130J-30 configuration, which is the current standard for recapitalising the USAF and many other air forces around the world.
The C-130J will support the Ramstein-based 37th Airlift Squadron that has been flying C-130Es.
Lockheed will deliver ten C-130Js to the air force this year, with four more scheduled for delivery in 2010.
