Cargo lift is one of the basic and primary necessities for an organization to run successfully and efficiently, for this various aircraft industries have manufactured a special and very important breed of air crafts. These air crafts are only meant for heavy duty to light duty transportation of equipment, passengers and troops. Their defenses are limited and thus are not meant to fight in any kind of war until or unless they are modified to do so like the AC-130 Gunship, a special breed of successful transport aircraft the C-130 Hercules.


Here I have compiled a list of the most popular cargo airplanes ever built in the history of aviation. I may have missed out some so feel free to comment.

C-130 HERCULES



C-130 is most successful aircraft ever developed by the Lockheed Martin. More than 70 countries right now are using these aircraft for multipurpose roles. This aircraft is easy to maintain and also fuel efficient.
