C130 (not -J) uses the Allison engine, dates back to the 50s.

I heard the core core of the IAE v2500 is the same as a JT-8, if that counts?

and not airborne, but a lot of the Jets you are asking about (Conway, Olympus) are still used in marine / ground applications, for power generation or marine propulsion.
