RAAF Lockheed C-130J-30 A97-449 transfers cargo at Rockhampton

With the joint Australian - US military exercise Talisman Saber 2015 now underway at the Shoalwater Bay Training Area (SWBTA), there is sure to be plenty of military movements at Rockhampton Airport over the next three weeks or so.
 
While briefly visiting Rockhampton Airport myself on Monday, July 06 - Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Lockheed C-130J-30 A97-449 touched-down at the beef capital from Darwin. After transferring some equipment, A97-449 departed back to the Northern Territory capital where Talisman Saber 2015 is also in full swing.
