洛克希德·马丁 AC-130J“骑士” | 20140622173844

2014年1月31日，美国佛罗里达州埃格林空军基地，美国空军特种作战司令部首架新型 AC-130J“骑士”空中炮艇机准备首飞。这架AC-130J是在MC-130J运输机上加装“精确打击组件”而成，这种组件能够迅速简便地安装在MC-130J运输机上。这也是AC-130J与目前美军使用的AC-130H/U攻击机最主要的区别，其主要任务是近距空中支援，空中遮断和武装侦察。按计划共有32 架MC-130J将被修改为AC-130J。（Dave King, of Lockheed Martin, marshals out the AC-130J Ghostrider as it taxis the runway for its first official sortie Jan. 31 at Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. The Air Force Special Operations Command MC-130J arrived at Eglin in January 2013 to begin the modification process for the AC-130J, whose primary mission is close air support, air interdiction and armed reconnaissance. A total of 32 MC-130J prototypes will be modified as part of a $2.4 billion AC-130J program to grow the future fleet.）
