    A large military transport aircraft, consistent with a C-17 Globemaster III, is parked on a vast white salt flat with its cargo ramp lowered and what appears to be cargo or a vehicle offloaded nearby. Several personnel are visible on foot near the aircraft. The surrounding terrain is an expansive, flat desert basin with distant mountain ranges visible on the horizon under a clear blue sky.

    A large military cargo aircraft, consistent with a C-17 Globemaster III, is operating on a flat, white surface that appears to be a salt flat or unpaved desert runway. The aircraft is generating dust or debris clouds from its engines and landing gear, suggesting it is either landing or performing a ground roll. Mountains are visible in the background under a hazy sky.
    A group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are walking away from a large military transport aircraft (appears to be a C-17 Globemaster) on a bright, arid airfield. The soldiers are carrying personal gear and duffel bags, suggesting a recent arrival or deployment operation. The terrain features a flat, white salt flat or dry lakebed with mountainous terrain visible in the background.
