Your Sunday Morning Jet Noise

C-17 Globemaster III


The C-17 had a very long gestation period, almost making the C-5 program looked trouble-free. But ultimately, the C-17, with or without arm-twisting, was the first Air Force freighter since the C-130 to be adopted by other nations' militaries. The A-400M is said to compete with it, but the C-17 can lift twice as an A-400M. That's a factor when there is a need to move really heavy things, such as armored vehicles.

C-17s went out of production in 2015. There is currently no projected replacement for them.
