US sold some of its C-130 aircraft to the Philippines in 2019

The United States (US) Department of Defense (DoD) Official said in a recent interview that the US sold secondhand C-130 Hercules Transport aircraft to the Philippines in 2019.

The quantity of the aircraft is unclear though as per the Official’s statement said, “…four C-130 Hercules aircraft to Chile and the Philippines …”

However, a report from 2018 by the Inquirer mentioned that 2 C-130 aircraft were to be acquired by the Philippine Air Force (PAF) from the US, so these are likely it.
