HERCULES
STATE MEDAL 5762/2002
4th in the “Airplanes that Made History” Series
This fascinating series of medals commemorates the airplanes of the Israeli Air Force. Each one made its mark on the history of the country and is associated with its specific period of operation. The planes have been reproduced in precise detail on the medals, designed by Eliezer Weishoff, in consultation with the Public Committee headed by the former Commander of the Air Force, Major General Eitan Ben Eliahu.
The “Hercules” or “Rhinoceros” as it is called in the Israel Air Force is the Israeli Lockheed C-130. This 4-engine military transport aircraft has taken part in numerous transport and rescue operations, the most famous of which was the “Entebbe Operation”. During the Yom Kippur War, these planes played an instrumental role in the transport of soldiers to and from the Sinai. They have also taken part in numerous humanitarian operations in Kenya, Turkey and other countries.

The silver/925 proof medal is with gold-plated sterling silver insert and the bronze proof medal is with sterling silver insert.
