⚡️🇵🇰 No. 6 Transport Squadron of the Pakistan Air Force modified its C-130Bs for use as bombers to carry up to 20,000 pounds (9,100 kg) of bombs on pallets. These improvised bombers were used to hit Indian targets such as bridges, heavy artillery positions, tank formations, and troop concentrations.

Mind you this is an Air Test and Evaluation Squadron. This is most likely a stress test and will be overkill in an actual engagement.
Spreading out your "Force/Murder Capabilities" across the strike package is more desirable as Losing a single plane in a heavily armed strike package would mean losing a significant portion of your firepower.
Though it would be hard to get close (I am just coping, nothing can shoot this plane down 😭)
This mirrors modern tactics where networked systems, like data sharing between aircraft or between different branches (air, land, sea), aim to make the force as a whole more lethal and less dependent on any one platform.
