The Lockheed C-5 Galaxy is a large military transport aircraft originally designed and built by Lockheed, and now maintained and upgraded by its successor, Lockheed Martin. It provides the United States Air Force (USAF) with a heavy intercontinental-range strategic airlift capability, one that can carry outsized and oversized loads, including all air-certifiable cargo. The Galaxy has many similarities to its smaller Lockheed C-141 Starlifter predecessor, and the later Boeing C-17 Globemaster III. The C-5 is among the largest military aircraft in the world.

LIV KES, NOU PROBLEM
Got to see one of these unloading UN gear in 1980 at what is now the Harare airport just after the transition of power from the Smith government to Abel Muzorewa – it is a spectacular piece of gear!
Ok
Lived near Travis Air Force base growing up. They use to fly over our house daily, incredibly powerful.. could always feel them from the ground
It just gave birth to a baby helicopter
Yes thank you for the service and the video I Like It All
Drove by Fort Campbell
And I believe we saw a C-5M super galaxy flying a training mission. It was circling, flying around in a low level pattern, and basically joy riding to the untrained eye. Lol
It was HUGE, and truly an honor to see our military might on display. I used to work right next to runway at Lambert St Louis airport in the mid 90's Had the privilege to see and hear many military jets take off and land. F15's , F18's, c-17, I believe either a globemaster or galaxy, air force one when Bush Sr visited, and some truly awesome sites. Hindsight, I wish I would have taken pics. Fighter jets would be mocked up, taken on runway, and take off in anodized coatings. They would take off, hit afterburners, and literally disappeared straight vertical.
Not an expert on which jets and models, but knew what some were. Thank you to our great military service men and women.
God Bless America

This plane a massive and can carry 3 attacg helicopter and it only got 4 turbine engines, those gotta be some super powerful turbines to pull that much weight imagine 6 danm
fun fact. you could jam in a large blue whale in that thing, 🙂
not that you'd ever want to.
free willy 4??
Can you fit a coach in there?
This machine can level a city(200 mile radius)in less than a half hour.the u.s military is the most feared nation on this planet.i served this country proudly.1979-1985.
Could you fit 2 – M1A1 Battle tanks on that plane ?
I'ts the same plane from Terminator dark fate! It's amazing
Its beautiful
Way cool
They made a plane based off that plane in the fast and furious?
Quote..why don't you put her in charge..
Awesome GALAXY…..!
Did they finish getting the M mod on all the air craft? Been about 6 years since I got out and they were in the process of doing it when I got in. I remember talking about it with some of the guys in Travis. (I worked on the C-5B and the 2 C-5C models we had but we didn't have the Ms where I was, mostly Dover handled them
It's interesting seeing them push the apache with some people pushing on the rocket pods. They must be super sturdy.
Ayye its NUQ
Insane how big they are
ÐмериканÑкие Ñамолёты внешне и по техничеÑким решениÑм, по Ñравнению Ñ Ð¡Ð¾Ð²ÐµÑ‚Ñкими выглÑдÑÑ‚ внешне веÑьма хлипко.
1:34 when the plane is hungry
That thing swallowed up three Apaches? Talk about a big appetite!
I like the matte black finish
It's look like an American Antonov 124
I love the C5’s but I hate the C5-M. It sounds like a boring airliner
My 4 yo son and I were lucky enough to get space a on a C-5. Cost, like 3$ each, for the bagged lunch we got, which was way better than commercial airline food. The seats were huge and it felt so safe. My son was insanely excited that there was a huge helicopter in the hold, we saw it climbing the stairs on the way in. That's really the way to travel.
I feel this HUGE aircraft is more cool than those fighter jet!
Really love it when it about to takeoff 🛫ðŸ˜
I could just barely fit my father in there
Damn she got a fat ass!
Is the cargo bay preassurized?
Does anyone know how many tons in cargo this plain could take>?
I bet pentagon dared Lockheed to go big or go home and this is the result
US Army allmighty.
yo, my car is has Air ride
@4:56
USAF: My Giant plane has Air ride too
í•˜ë§ˆê°™ì´ ìƒê²¼ë…¸
Wow, just wow.
Why Europe don't do this type of planes?
I live right next door to McGuire Air Force Base in New Jersey we did not have c5 there but they were a hundred miles down the road at Dover they would fly over our house all the time and break some of my mom's glass ornaments we got so much trouble cuz you thought it was us
