Two of the RAF’s C-130s have been destroyed on the ground in the countries since the second quarter of last year, with both having detonated anti-tank landmines placed on remote strips.
In at least once instance when a 130 was destroyed by landmines the cargo included quite a few people - are they going out on the heavy drop pallets as well?
