I believe that the Hyd system on the C 130 has no redundancy
True, a couple of years ago I was an AD on a RAAF H model departing Richmond when we suffered a burst hydraulic line shortly after t/o. The pilots turned 180 Deg and landed on the same runway. Total time airbourne was less than a minute but shortly after touchdown control of all hydraulic control surfaces was lost.(so one of the pilots told me)
