Hi Steve
The news report said all 24 of the RAAF's Hercules so that must be H and J models.
However, I recall reading that two C130Hs were grounded some time ago due to cracks in the main spar (I think) and will never fly again.
The grounding of the rest of fleet, however temporary, is probably a first in the RAAF's history, and will have a serious effect on operations overseas where several are based.
