    New Zealand’s military says it's buying five Lockheed Martin Super Hercules transport planes for $1 billion. They will replace planes that are more than 50 years old and have been involved in a series of embarrassing breakdowns over recent years.http://apne.ws/FKwpS21

        White lives matter no justice no peace. Stop the Violence against white people. Protesters don't know what their Protesting for. When people say I want equality or equal rights that,s something. When they say Black lives matter or ell's. Their no longer Protesting their Rioting.

        That's B for billion. Not million. That makes each C130 cost around 200 million each. International sale costs average 100-167 million each.
