    A large military transport aircraft, silhouetted against a dusk sky, flies over a military airfield where numerous helicopters are parked in organized rows on the tarmac. The scene is captured at golden hour, creating strong silhouettes against a warm, hazy sky. A hillside with structures and vegetation is visible in the background beyond the airfield buildings.

    A large military transport aircraft, silhouetted against a dusk sky, flies over a military airfield where numerous helicopters are parked in organized rows on the tarmac. The scene is captured at golden hour, creating strong silhouettes against a warm, hazy sky. A hillside with structures and vegetation is visible in the background beyond the airfield buildings.
    A large military cargo aircraft, consistent with a C-5 Galaxy or similar heavy-lift transport, is taxiing or positioned on a runway at a military airfield. The setting features arid, rolling hills in the background with scattered buildings and vegetation visible. Lighting suggests either early morning or late afternoon conditions.
    Military personnel are loading or unloading a helicopter into the cargo bay of a large Air Force Reserve Command transport aircraft, identified by the text on the nose. The aircraft appears to be a C-5 Galaxy or similar heavy-lift strategic airlifter with its distinctive visor nose raised. Multiple service members in camouflage uniforms are working together on the flight line to maneuver the rotary-wing aircraft up the loading ramp.
    Military personnel in various uniforms are manually pushing a large military helicopter across a tarmac or airfield. The aircraft appears to be a CH-46 or similar tandem-rotor helicopter bearing U.S. Marine Corps markings. Personnel in flight suits, woodland camouflage, and multicam uniforms are working together in a coordinated ground-handling operation.
    Military personnel are loading or unloading a U.S. Marines helicopter (serial number 169243) into or out of a large U.S. Air Force Reserve Command cargo aircraft, likely a C-5 Galaxy, on a tarmac.
