C-130s really do it all (the linked vid is of a different hurricane but they've been doing similar flights with Milton)
Seems that the C-130s won’t be ready until 2030. Looks like they’re using WP-3D Orion aircraft currently.

Orions are badass in their own right
Well shit, I read the Wikipedia link and some articles from the comment about the NOAA Hurricane Hunters and assumed you were referring to them.
The C-130J you linked from the ADS-B recorder seems to be military. Guess they’ve been using them for a while for storm reconnaissance.
Yeah the post directly mentions the NOAA guys but the Air Force Reserve hurricane hunters are what came to mind my mistake
Oh I didn’t know the Air Force Reserves did that! Though that makes a lot of sense given how it’s surveilling in proximity to the States. Good use of aircraft and brainpower in that pursuit.
