Indija planira  da kupi 6 transportnih aviona Herkules za cifru od skoro milijardu dolara, čime će ova nabavka postati najskuplja nabavka aviona iz SAD. Planira se da se isporuka završi do kraja 2011. godine.

India plans to buy six Hercules transport planes from Lockheed Martin for nearly one billion dollars, marking the country's biggest ever military aircraft deal with the United States, officials said on March 17.

"The government has signed a letter of offer and acceptance with the U.S. government for the procurement of six C-130J-30 (Hercules) transport aircraft for the Indian air force," Defense Minister A.K. Antony said in a statement.

The estimated value of the aircraft along with ground-support equipment and spares was around $962 million, Antony said.

"Delivery of these aircraft is likely to be completed by December 2011," Antony added.

More than 2,300 C-130s have been sold to 67 countries since 1954.

The Indian deal involves an upgraded version of the Hercules, which began production in 1997, the company said.

The U.S.-based Lockheed is also in the race for a $12 billion contract to sell 126 fighter jets to the Indian air force.

The Hercules contract is the largest ever awarded to a U.S. company by India, New Delhi officials said.

The contract includes lifetime maintenance support guarantees for the four-engined turboprop aircraft, which will be used as the main tactical plane for special operations.

Lockheed Martin has offered to configure the 30-meter-long (99-foot) planes according to India's needs and equip them with missile and radar warning systems, military officials said.

The technology-starved Indian air force operates Soviet-era 10- and 40-tonne capacity transport aircraft and officials said the Hercules, which can haul 20 tonnes, would be able to "fill the gap."

The Hercules, which can be used on humanitarian missions, is part of a 2004 multi-billion-dollar Indian program to create world-standard special operations units.

The announcement came two months after India handed a 1.5-billion euro ($2.2 billion) deal to France's Dassault to upgrade 51 Mirage-2000 fighter jets, which the Indian air force bought in 1985.

Ties with India's main arms supplier Russia, which accounts for 70 percent of the country's military inventory, now face rough weather over delays in deliveries and pricing.

India, the largest buyer of armaments among emerging nations, plans to spend $30 billion until 2012 to modernize its 1.23-million-strong military, the world's fourth largest.

Avion je poletio iz zrakoplovne baze Agra na rutinski let danass ujutro das bi se potom srušio na području Karaulija u Rajasthanu, 72 km od Gwaliora, rekli su dužnosnici. IAF je pokrenuo istragu.

Indija i SAD su potpisale 1,2 milijarde američkih dolara vrijedan ugovor za šest C - 130J Super Hercules krajem 2008. Ugovor uključuje šest zrakoplova, obuku posada i tehničara za održavanje, pričuvne dijelove, zemaljsku potporu i ispitnu opremu, viličare,  utovarna vozila, teretne palete i tim tehničkih stručnjaka koji će u Indiji tijekom trogodišnjeg razdoblja pružati potporu. Paket također uključuje operativnu opremu namijenjenu za povećanje sposobnosti specijalnih operacija sa avionom.
