Postage Stamp PS5330-6 1:200 C-130 Hercules Little Rock AFB, SEA CAMO

This die-cast metal model of the C-130 SEA Camo comes in 1:200 scale with a plastic display stand and measures 6 inches long with a 7.75-inch wingspan. It features the official Air Force insignia and faithful coloring matching the "Sea Camo" camouflage design. For Adult Collectors ages 14+. The "Sea Camo" is a variant of the C-130 Hercules. "Sea" stands for Southeast Asia and features a multi-color and pattern camouflage design, utilized during the Vietnam War for low-level visual concealment against jungle environments, and later adapted for desert conflicts. This paint scheme features greens, tans, and whites. Like the mythological titan it is named after, the Sea Camo version of the C-130 Hercules delivered a truly heroic moment during the fall of Saigon. A single aircraft flown by a South Vietnamese pilot carried 452 refugees to Thailand, 32 of them in the cockpit alone. Overloaded by at least 10,000 pounds, it took every foot of the runway to become airborne, the pilot hitting the brakes while taxiing to close the rear doors.
