The Heavyweight Flexer of USAF #shorts 

I often wonder things like when the problem was discovered and it’s repair was found who then was it the fault of? And how did this experience change the outcome for everyone involved? Where did the money come from? Will better designed planes result from experience or brains?

Ooooh his name is not what u think bcs he says it everytimeeeee

A bunch of these got parked at Davis Monthan in order to extend their life, ie, not wear them out. Every once in a while, one gets reactivated to replace another that is reaching the end of its service life.

Mriya: Nice dude Welcome to our league

Looks like a A225 Maria, the Russian version of this built on the cold war and is currently the largest aircraft (excluding blimps)

Weird flex but ok.

Gotta love Lockheed

I just saw your chanel logo and I realized that you put there not what you think Pls dont judge mee

That's what I fly, super galaxy. Fantastic craft, started on the smaller c130f then up to the C130j got my hours up got an extra stripe and my own command, I got lucky and moved into strategic air command where the C5 and C17 live. Have many happy memories in these beasts. Flew the main base components into forward operating base Leather neck and even helped nato with camp bastion. We've carried tanks, helicopters and even porta potties. Nothing like freedom of the skies.

"The C5 is one of the largest military aircraft in the world" Antanov 155: Hold my beer

Weird flex but ok

Planes like these are just a complete feat of human ingenuity, unbelievable

GOD AND JESUS BLESS YOU ALL IN JESUS MIGHTY AND POWERFUL NAME WE PRAY AMEN 🙏❤️

Bro...you all up in our military specs?

So cool. I remember seeing one up close at an air show when I was a kid. I could not believe how huge it really was. It was like an airplane hanger in the shape of an airplane! It was really cool!

I'm not sure the stability part of your script is correct at all. Anhedral wings when attached to the top of the aircraft will improve stability. They have to be attached to the top so the landing gear can be short.

Hello dears but u think about an 124 an marieya225

The C5 has a payload of 270k lb, which equates to roughly 122 metric tons. That is enough to lift an M1A2 SEP tank, plus a Bradley and some capacity left to spare. It can lift two 61 ton tanks, or three 40 ton vehicles.

I am an USAF veteran that worked the ramp and these FREDs use to breakdown all the time.

What is the name of the planes with the big propeller type engines,in the begining of the video????

So it’s exactly what I thought

wait a minute the avenger from gta online???😂😂🙂

is this c5 galaxy biggest plane in world? probably not anymore)

Imagine landing and the ground crew goes; "Yup, your wings are cracked." 😳

Did I just hear a plane could be “too stable”?

That plane can poomp the mooskles

It was what I thought

Earlier in the C-5 initial development program, after Lockheed won the contract. AF determined that the wing structure was too heavy and had Lockheed performed a weight reduction study which removed "excessive" weight before starting the production run. Later on after in service wing crack issues discovered, the AF asked Lockheed to perform a wing enhancement program to extend the serviceability of the aircraft. Lockheed complied and put back those design which was removed at AF's request at the earlier time. The moral of the story: You've got what you'd paid for, twice at different time!

Just the fact that humans can create something like this amazing.

Even planes are flexing in the military. Damn.

C-5B is a monster of an Aircraft!

C-5 is very intimidating in person

Our taxes were spent stupidly that way with Lockheed!!! Well done, stupid governance! Burnt billion of taxes in it!!!

Sorry but hes copying antonov

Antonov an 225 :hold my vodka comrade

I've been inside the cargo bay of one, its massive

My dream is to be on a flight in one of those planes

I love airplanes ✈️

Круто пасадка

Hmm, didn't want lie to me anymore, huh. Oh just decide it's the best everyone should ever know. Look you gotta retrofit the C5 so it will make it incredibly space (outer space worthy, it's nothing but a metal enclosure, can be made airtight. Yes the C5 orbital achieving aircraft named "Worthy" picks up it's boosters, fuel isn't the only thing that can be picked up while flying. You will make orbit. Those C5s are going to be pretty handy. Along with Boeing and Lockheed Martins jumbo Jets. Oh, I thought you said you wanted to save the world or you'd be pretty good with some jumbo Jets and fighters. Pardon me please. If I can think of it, they did too. You heard it here first and is now a new invention the jato assist orbit.

It is what I think

Everytime I watch one of these shorts, I realize it's not what I think

Pff it can't even carry the maus😂

It's not that it would have been too stable and not have enough roll maneuverability, I'm not exactly sure why you need to roll a giant plane like that but maybe to avoid being shot out of the air.

I wonder why they were spraying the plane down there in that part of that one video. It didn't look like they were deicing it and were they cooling it off for whatever or washing it?

Y it gotta flex on me like that

Of course it’s American

Goes to prove, you don’t throw things away!

Mmmm aircraft carrying aircraft.

I love this channel

Should do the globemaster next if you haven't. One of the few aircraft that can go reverse on the ground allowing it to land on shorter runways. My county airport can have them land where normally large jets can not.

130 ABOVE!!!😂

That military budget

China: Write that down!

These things used to have a unique sound very loud. Now you can’t hear them as much.

SO THIS IS HOW GTA GOT THEIR INSPIRATION FOR THE CARGO PLANE

this plane can carry an helicopter but i cant bring a water bottle on flight

I seen one take off at a air show back in the day. "El Toro AFB The engine's litterly left a trail of fire on the run way

We're all thinking it, I'm just saying. The c-5 is an American an-124.

Damn I love the USA 🇺🇸😍❤

Too bad it breaks when ever it kneels every. fucking. time. C5s are shit, this was brought to you by the C17 gang.

Ricegum but plane edition

Damn where are all the conservatives complaining about our budget here?

So basically: The air force bought a faulty product, then they spent billions of tax payers money to have it fixed and buy even more of em. Any ordinary person would have returned the product but the air force just doubled tripled and quadrupled down. Amazing.

Has he done the antonov yet?

Worst channel, especially his blatantly false videos where ya , it’s EXACTLY what you think.

I liked those helicopter planes (forgot their names oof)

thicc

Aluminium ffs sake it's aluminium

"Otherwise the plane would have been too stable" Golly, what a problem to have. Like I get why it was one, but out of context it just sounds too good

C5 Galaxy and C17 Globe Master are True masters of the Sky but not until the B52 Strato has its presence on the sky

And u gotta know that the one guy is stearing that

"But it's not what you think it is" that line is legendary 👍🤣

My grandfather actually helped design the engines for the c5 when he work for ge

$1.400.000.000.000 well damn

Ur tax money

These can also cary people(troops) in the top. There is a small(ish) hump on the top near the cockpit where airline seats can be situated. I have ridden from California to Baltimore in one of these. The ride is very loud but a great experience.

Money pit since 1970

My husband works on fighter jets planes in the USAF. He loves his job & has done great in it for the last eighteen years. So proud of him!

Colorado springs?

That C5 on the runway near the start was greeted with a firehose salute, im guessing it was carrying a fallen soldier???

Name of song in background?

Holy shit!!

I thought the B52 was the largest??

Did you know the c-5 has stairs in its tails

So what would its weight/wake turbulence classification be? Heavy? Super?

Amazing aircraft.

Reagan liked government spending after all

Bombushka and avenger ❤️

So basically it’s a plane with bendy wings that cracked so they made them bendier

I flew from SoCal to Kuwait in a C5. Alot of ppl don't know but up top is passenger seating. If I remember there were about 50-75 seats. They faced backwards in ours. Below in the cargo hold was 2 folded up CH53 helicopters. So the biggest military plane was carrying 2 of the biggest Marine Corps helicopters and 50 US Marines. No windows. First we landed in Dover. Then we landed in Italy. Then KCIA. 11 months later I flew back in a C17 with a stop in Germany then a refuel over the Atlantic Ocean which was horrifically turbulent until connection then landed in So Cal. We have the best planes by far

AVENGER

Used to work at a small regional airport that had a military base nearby and when I'd see one of these things land or takeoff it's incredibly humongous compared to the commercial planes we parked. Remarkable aircraft to see in person.

ANTONOV AN124'S *AMERICAN COUSIN*

Do one on the C-17. A much more modern and very tough transport.

I love how in the beginning, there were many avengers, and during the vid, they unloaded an akula

I was on two of these aircraft with CH 46s in the belly there are 73 seats and they are facing backwards

Amazing to see all those draughtsmen on their drawing boards. These days there would be a fraction of that number working CAD.

I love C5

I love these short videos. Most of them suck but the ones on your channel are really good.
