"Air Force Special Operation Command MC-130Js will be equipped to fly various missions and will be called Commando II,"

The aircraft's popular name previously was Combat Shadow II. Alternate names considered included Combat Knife and Combat Arrow.

"This is one of the first name changes we approved," said Keven Corbeil, a Defense Department popular name control point in the flight.
