Za razliku od SEA Dart-a ostao je samo u vidu makete i nacrta.
Citat:"Over twenty years after the SeaDart program ended, Lockheed Aircraft Company in Burbank, California, made design studies for a Mach Two water based fighter with the exact large single ski configuration tested on the XF2Y-1 SeaDart. Their aircraft design had a modified deltawing with twin afterburning engines mounted above the wings. Lockheed's ski designer, Frank Thornberg, had also designed the large single-ski for the Convair SeaDart. Lockheed made proposals for their aircraft to NATO nations for basing in Europe's many lakes, rivers and sheltered water areas."

Citat:In the early 1980s, engineers at the then-Lockheed-Georgia Company proposed a common aircraft design that could be used for both the US Navy’s TACAMO (Take Charge And Move Out) submarine communications mission and as a new tanker for the Marine Corps. This aircraft, called ECX-130 and KCX-130, was based around the basic C-130 fuselage design, but featured three CFM-56 turbofan engines—including one in the T-tail—and a supercritical wing. The ECX-130 (shown here) featured four TACAMO system operators and rest area seats and bunks for eight people. The KCX-130 would have featured two 3,600 gallon fuselage fuel tanks (versus the one in the existing KC-130F/R/T tankers) and aft petal doors similar to the C-141 StarLifter. Neither the ECX-130 nor the KCX-130 was built. http://www.codeonemagazine.com/c130_gallery_slideshow.html?item_id=4272

... још једна нереализована модификација Херкулеса...
Citat:The Lockheed L-400 was designed to serve the needs of a large number of Hercules operators for an economical airlifter for shorter range, lower payload missions. Studies began in the late 1970s. Several options—including a new aircraft—were considered, but a twin-engine derivative of the Hercules was seen as the most logical. The L-400, which would have been built on the C-130 assembly line in Marietta, Georgia, was expected to offer more than ninety percent spares, facilities, mission equipment, and support services commonality with the C-130/L-100. The program was officially launched in January 1980 with first flight expected by 1982 and, after FAA certification, delivery to the first customer by 1983. However, the market never developed and the program was shelved by the mid 1980s.... као и предлог морнаричког Ф-117...
Citat:In the 1990s, engineers at the then-Lockheed Advanced Development Projects group—better known as the Skunk Works—proposed a Navy variant of the F-117 Nighthawk stealth attack aircraft. The F-117N kept the basic fuselage design of the Nighthawk, but featured larger wings with reduced sweep that could be folded for carrier stowage; the addition of horizontal tails that necessitated a change in the engine exhaust; and a new canopy. Even with the aerodynamic changes, it was thought the aircraft would have similar stealth characteristics as its Air Force counterpart. The aircraft would have used modified F-14 Tomcat landing gear to reduce development costs. The F-117N, which never advanced beyond the concept stage, would have been an interim replacement for the A-6 Intruder.

... и још једна нереализована варијанта Херкулеса...
Citat:Between 1964 and 1973, Lockheed-Georgia Company looked at several amphibious configurations of the C-130 Hercules. In 1968, a US Navy study contract resulted in a one-sixth scale, radio controlled model that was used as a development tool. Called Hercules-On-Water, or HOW, the design kept much of the original C-130 configuration, but this version used a retractable hydro-ski beneath the boat hull-shaped fuselage for takeoff and landing. The design’s Allison T56 engines were inverted and placed on top of the wing to take the intakes and propellers out of the water spray, similar to the configuration used on the P-3 Orion maritime patrol aircraft. No production contracts were received and the Hercules-On-Water project was shelved.
