It has no doubt come to collect equipment and possibly personnel as the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) Exercise Wallaby 2024 wraps up after being held over the last couple of months in the nearby Shoalwater Bay Training Area (SWBTA).

UPDATE!  On Wednesday 6 November, the C-130H Hercules '731' departed Rockhampton Airport for Darwin again as "SAF9410".

Of interest, the Herc is one of six C-130H aircraft which are flown by the RSAF's 122 Squadron "Condors" based at the Paya Lebar Air Base (PLAB) in Singapore.

The squadron goes by the motto of "Dependable".
