The C-130J is an incredibly versatile aircraft, and since its creation, it's landed on rough fields, in arctic locations, and even an aircraft carrier. Yet, it cannot land on water, covering about 71% of the planet.

In partnership with the Air Force Research Lab's Strategic Development Planning and Experimentation Directorate, AFSOC is developing an MC-130J Commando II Amphibious Capability (MAC) to improve the platform's support of seaborne special operations.

The development of a removable amphibious float modification for an MC-130J would enable "runway independent" operations, which, according to Trantham, would extend the global reach and survivability of the aircraft and Air Commandos.
