I’m so proud of you! I went in one of your old C-130H Hercules, I’m glad to see you with a super Hercules this time! And I went to the RNZAF base at Whenuapai to see that old C-130H off yours. I also went in it! I’m glad to see you flying again! You’re the best defence force I know!
RNZAF, i've always wanted to thank the Ohakea boys for something they did 20 years ago for my mum and dad. Mum is retired ex army and dad is retired ex SAS who monitored transmissions in Afghanistan. They requested a flyover of their farm house and the RNZAF sent a Hercules. 20 years later, i still piss myself laughing at what happened. The boys didn't just do a flyover, they flew so low that mum and dad could see the faces of the pilots in the cockpit smiling at them!! They nearly blew the roof of the house off!! We love our RNZAF, and the skill these guys have is comparable to any air force in the world. Sometimes i wish national security concerns didn't stop us from hearing about the bravery and skill of our pilots. Godspeed, boys!!
Are you guys planning on doing a video highlighting the differences between the old C-130Hs and the new C-130J-30s? I'd love to see a video like that going over the equipment in a bit more detail!
@@dis0953 Actually no, I'm part of a small tribe of people who are superior to the Kiwis in every concievable way (just ask us!). Therefore, due to their raging jealousy, most of our Kiwi cousins consider us to be their mortal enemies. 😡* *G'day mate! 🤠
The Lockheed Martin C-130J-30 Super Hercules Will Be A Boon For The Royal New Zealand Air Force( RNZAF) and The Entire New Zealand Defence Force ( NZDF). Congratulations and Good Luck With The New Aircraft. 🇺🇲🇳🇿🛩🫡‼️
Congratulations on getting these tried and true replacement aircraft, the RNZAF is slowly catching up with other nations, were these brand new or refurbished aircraft? Maybe they will one day get the F-16's they deserve
@@Not-today-wb9do I'd like to see Air NZ do a medivac to Antartica in the middle of winter, or supply relief packages to ravaged Islands, and then return with displaced people, or search (and locate), missing people, yachts, fishing boats, as well as drop off emergency supplies and liferaft, or winch people from ships out at sea... I could keep going...
I'm too old, I can remember ( & got movie ) when the 1st C130H arrived flying with the Hastings & DC6 doing the fly over Whenuapai in 1965. Doing parachute jumps out the back.
It's good to see the defence forces of this country recommend in the 'white paper' to replace the epic Hercules C-130 with. The Hercules C-130. Well done 👏
Explain to me why they wouldnt replace them with newer bigger and more technologically advanced versions of a platform they have decades of experience with?
Just a heads-up: It’s probably a good idea not to share too much detail about where planes flew over, especially if it’s near your school. That’s how personal info can get tracked online, which might lead to things like doxxing. Based on the flight track records, NZ7011 flew over several schools in Auckland, it flew over Greenhithe, Albany and Browns Bay. While I can’t know exactly which school, it’s always good to be cautious. If someone really wanted to, they could use different methods like social engineering to figure it out. Stay safe online, have a good one.
You guys can transport your own stuff though with your own C-17s and have tactical fighter squadrons. NZ has to rely on Australia to transport its helicopters and has no fighter aircraft at all.
Nz military budget couldn't afford it, barely keep up with our current roaster. Major kick in the rear end would be needed to actually get modern equipment for nz
Well if you want to say you bought a Toyota Corolla in 1960s, then bought a new Toyota Corolla in 2024 and call it the same car, then sure. Otherwise you will find there have been a lot changes.
Wrong. So wrong. It is not illegal to make use of radio communications if it was intended for you (legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1989/0148/latest/whole.html#DLM197387). Kinda odd that you'd assume that Defence didn't know this.
Why not a ac-130 I just don't get it. This is more of a support aircraft for attack not defence. You can tell already this will be used for NATO. Get your head sorted New Zealand government. War what is it good for?
how childish can you be? Not all force is projected through flashy fighter jets. When NZ did have jets guess how many times they had to fire their weapons in anger? Once!

Will never have fighters again in nz have no use for them . think yourselves lucky you even have an air force . Air new Zealand could the do same job
@@Not-today-wb9do air nz literally couldn't. you are being very disrespectful the the rnzaf and the great work they do.

It’s C 130j super Hercules.
It's sad to see people looking at a picture and think they know all about it.

@WayneNiles01 A bit like when I flick through a Penthouse magazine. I still don't know anything about women, but I still crack a fat. Yip. 😉👍
@CaptainBeano-lz6mm I can't. I'm more focused I'm my stiffy right at the moment 😋
I SAW THIS PLANE FLY OVER MY SCHOOL!!!!!!
What school do you go to?

Puff the magic dragon.

Awesome as an ex defence person
Lets gooo

What does it take to be a New Zealand air force pilot?
considering there's only 47 aircraft in the whole fleet id say your wasting your time go to auz like the fighter pilots did
Jeez you would need CrazyLegs to fly that thing.
What are you talking about? If you mean you need strong leg muscles to move the rudder, you don't need strong leg muscles to do that.
@@jezzanz Thats not what I mean. It cryptic.
way to go NZ, RNZAF has more modern aircraft like this C-130 and P-8 than our Canadian RCAF.
At least you guys are getting thje F-35A
You guys can transport your own stuff though with your own C-17s and have tactical fighter squadrons. NZ has to rely on Australia to transport its helicopters and has no fighter aircraft at all.
The RCAF have 17 c-130j’s, 12 c-130H’s, and 5 C-17’s. The RNZAF has 5 C130-H’s and 1 C-130J. Not much of a comparison.
Lisa Keys
Everyone else is buying KC390 and NZ buying 100 years old airplane
Nz military budget couldn't afford it, barely keep up with our current roaster. Major kick in the rear end would be needed to actually get modern equipment for nz
@@Grizzleburrr The choice had nothing to do with money, the US, Canada and and Australia are also buying the C-130J.
Did we buy the same plane ?
C130J is very different. Larger, different engine, six blade turbofan props +++…….very different.
@@DavoPJR not to mention the new comms and the infrared sensors
Well if you want to say you bought a Toyota Corolla in 1960s, then bought a new Toyota Corolla in 2024 and call it the same car, then sure. Otherwise you will find there have been a lot changes.
Kuch bhi
Ask the Australians to bring over th F35's for an exhibition please!
yummy
I am guessing that NZ Defence Force social media team are not aware that it's illegal to re- broadcast ATC communications in NZ
You got a reference for that?
Wrong. So wrong. It is not illegal to make use of radio communications if it was intended for you (legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1989/0148/latest/whole.html#DLM197387).
Kinda odd that you'd assume that Defence didn't know this.
thats a pre recorded audio so not acutal atc im pre sure the defence force would know
Simplefix, I’m pretty sure NZDF would have an exemption in place and permits authorising the use. Don’t get your nickers in a knot.
@@lyleattack Section 133A of the Radiocommunications Act 1989.
Couldn't we put a billion US dollars in it and cancel the sale, i mean land lords need that money...............
Why not a ac-130 I just don't get it. This is more of a support aircraft for attack not defence. You can tell already this will be used for NATO. Get your head sorted New Zealand government. War what is it good for?
You have the two models the wrong way around? The ac130 is a gunship. The 130c is a air lifting cargo plane?
A misnomer to call this mob an Air Force.
how childish can you be? Not all force is projected through flashy fighter jets. When NZ did have jets guess how many times they had to fire their weapons in anger? Once!
