Only one. The Detachment were 50/50 with the belgiums and each country suply one C-130. The Portuguese Air Force C-130 squadron has a total of 6 aircrafts, during the mission in afghanistan the portuguese c-130 broke the landing gear and it have to be replace by another portuguese c-130, so there was a time were there was 2 portuguese c-130 in there (1 operational and 1 in maintenance):Dlol.
