The C-130 is seen in the following campaign missions:
- In "Operation 40", the Op 40 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.

- — Frank Woods
The C-130 is briefly mentioned by Frank Woods in opening cutscene to level Pyrrhic Victory. However, the plane seen is a C-17 with propellers instead of turboprop engines. It can also be seen flying around the map during the mission Suffer With Me.

Trivia
- In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer, during the Emergency Airdrop killstreak, 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", Dunn calls it an AC-130 instead.
- The C-130 in multiplayer that is used for the Emergency Airdrop killstreak is a reskinned and resized AC-130, retaining its outer guns.
- In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, in the map Outpost, there is an unfinished C-130 close to the Spetsnaz spawn.
