This song actually refers to the sinking of the Rainbow Warrior outside of Aukland harbour by french secret service/submarine (depends who you listen to). The rainbow warrior was protesting nuclear testing in french polynesia and a hercules was a RAAF plane sent to look for survivors but warned of by the french navy.

Basically about the fear of the consequences of The Cold War and the nuclear testing in the South Pacific. The Hercules is a transport plane commonly used by the USAF and the RAAF.
