The C-130 is seen in the following campaign missions:
 * In Operation 40, the Studies and Observation Group have to escape in a C-130 through heavy gunfire on the airfield. After the plane begins to show damage on the runway, Mason jumps off the plane to take out trucks blocking the end of the runway, allowing it to take off.

 * In Crash Site, the Russians use a C-130 to transport a load of Nova 6, which is later shot down by American soldiers. Although SOG reach the crash first, the hull is hit by a Spetsnaz Hind, causing the front to fall down a small cliff, injuring the team.

Trivia

 * In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer, if the player looks at the back of the plane as the C-130 drops the crates, the player can see the crates spawn behind the plane.
 * The C-130 in multiplayer is not a solid object, as a Predator Missile will fly right through it.
 * Even though it is clearly a C-130 crashing in the campaign mission "Exodus", Cpl. Dunn calls it an AC-130 instead.
 * The C-130 in multiplayer used for the emergency airdrop killstreak is a reskinned AC-130, retaining its outer guns.
