Additional credit goes to @Boxglow for the paint scheme, and @WNP78 for inspiration behind this build. After tinkering with the idea of extender flaps for 2 days strait I gave up and built the rest of the plane, taking me 4 days total.
The Lockheed MC-130 is the basic designation for a family of special mission aircraft operated by the United States and NATO Spec Ops units. Its roles range from spec ops transport and refueling to ground attack and bombing. it can even catch a falling "weather balloon".
This is a particularly low detail version due to limitations in the game. also it contains no mods to conform with challenge rules. a second version will be put out that has a cockpit, weapons, and refueling parts.
