The first South Korean C-130J made its inaugural flight at Lockheed Martin's production facility in Marietta, Ga., announced company officials.

These airplanes are scheduled for delivery in 2014, according to the company.

South Korea currently flies the C-130H model. Lockheed Martin unveiled the paint scheme for the South Korean aircraft in June.
