Hi all, could anyone please help to ID this aircraft. I thought it was a C-130 but the front isn't quite the same.

Looks like a red X in the middle of small box to me!

Thanks for your reply, I've refreshed the page several times, even left the site and came back and I can see the image each time. :confused:

If anyone else sees only a red x please let me know

Yep, just a red cross in a box.

Yup, a very elegant red cross in a box. You're probably linking to a photo on your hard drive. That'd be why the rest of the world can't see it and you can.

The Antonov An-12 airplane number 9Q-CIH filmed in the movie was owned by a Russian citizen Evgeny Zakharov. On January 8, 2005, the plane crashed at Bukalaza, Uganda; all six crew members were killed. The plane departed Entebbe airport with destination Kinshasa. It was reportedly carrying humanitarian relief items.IMDB: Lord of War (2005) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0399295/trivia)
