Download the form

Department of Defense form 2130-2. Official designation: C-130 E/H/J Load Plan. Purpose: C-130 E/H/J Load Plan. Current edition not stated, status not stated.

Prescribing authority: not stated. Proponent: not stated. Unlike service-specific publications, DD forms carry Department-level authority and apply across the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Space Force and Coast Guard when operating under Defense jurisdiction.

The form reaches military personnel across the services, civilian employees of the Department, and the personnel and records specialists who receive it.

When the form is filed is a matter of not stated and local instruction. The description here covers the document itself and how to obtain a copy.

The download set covers PDF. Document length is 2 pages with about 200 entry fields.

The pdf is the primary distribution format. A fillable pdf accepts typed entries in defined field boxes and stores them in the file; a printable pdf is a flat image of the blank, meant for pen entry after printing. The distinction matters for legibility and for records that pass between offices.

Order of completion: identification block first, substantive entries second, certification and signature last. The blank is laid out in that sequence and the sequence is not arbitrary — later entries often depend on data established in the header.

The current edition is not stated. Superseded editions of DD forms are frequently rejected at the receiving office, since Department-wide forms change centrally and older layouts lose their field correspondence. Edition date appears in the lower corner of the printed blank.

Instructions printed on the form or in not stated govern individual field entries. Where the two differ, the governing publication controls.

The completed document moves to the office named in not stated or in local guidance. A retained copy is conventional practice.

Cross-referenced forms are found through the numbering system. The DD sequence is Department-level and unified, which means a number cited on the page identifies one document across the whole Department.

Some procedures pair a DD form with a service form. The two numbering systems are separate — service forms answer to a service proponent, DD forms to not stated or another Department office — and a matching number in each system means nothing.

Revision occurs when the prescribing directive is reissued, when the data collected changes, or when statutory notice language is amended. Verification of the edition date at download addresses all three.

Scope of this page: distribution of a published form and description of its contents. It offers no legal guidance and no assurance regarding any particular submission. Direct procedural questions to not stated, to the servicing personnel office, or to the office designated in not stated.
