Go here: http://www.af.mil/factsheets/ Any aircraft with a C-_ is a cargo/transport aircraft, read up on them. That mission is usually undertaken by the AF, and not the Navy.
unless its a COD! "C"OD get it?? hahaha
i crack myself up.
no offence to any COD boys. hey i love ya man.
Back in 2000, I unfortunetly spent some time learning Air Force logistics during a military excercise in S. Korea. From what I remember, the Air Force partakes in strategic and tactical airlift missions. Strategic implies just that with C-5's, C-17's, C-130's, C-141's, etc, taking part in the large airlift mission. What COD's do would be what they call tactical airlift. Usually conducted within the theatre of operations, defined in a specific area. Translate that to the navy and the C-2 would be the aircraft, though our airfield constantly moves throught the water.
C-130s and C-17s also conduct tactical airlift right?
In fact, before the AF realigned things a bit and changed command names, you could find Chuck 130s in both the Tactical Air Command (TAC) and the strat lift Military Airlift Command (MAC).
Yes, at least according to what I learned.
Poor babies. In typical Air Farce fashion two weeks basket leave probably follow.
