The USN Herc. is almost certainly not a KC-130T, now. The USMC have been divesting themselves of the T model Hercules for about the last six years. The USN (AFAIK) do not operate any tankers.

The 163591 is a C-130T ,

I believe that the USMC Reserve is still operating the KC-130T with VMGR-452 "Yankees" based at Stewart in New York.
They will also receive the KC-130J and will complete transition in the next years to come.

Correct, the Yankees have yet to start to receive their KC-130Js, so it will be a few years before the last T modeliss out of USMC service.
