Lockheed Martin has completed painting the first of two Tunisian Air Force C-130J-30 Super Hercules. 

Tunisia currently operates a fleet of C-130Hs and C-130Bs, first purchased in the mid-1980s.  The new C-130Js will support Tunisian operations across the mission spectrum, including relief efforts around the world, firefighting and traditional airlift sorties.

 The first aircraft is due for delivery later this year.
