- 55-0021 started life as a C-130A, it was then modified to a prototype C-130D
configuration. It was demodified back to a C-130A, and at some point it was
modified to DC-130A (drone launcher / controller) specs. It was sold to the US Navy
and was flown until June of 1979 when it was transfered to Davis-Monthan. It has
been used a a parts bird for the remaining DC-130A's, there is not much left of it.
