    A large military transport aircraft, consistent with a C-5 Galaxy, is captured in flight deploying multiple infrared countermeasure flares from dispensers located along its fuselage and wings. The flares burn brightly with golden-white light and leave trailing smoke streaks behind the aircraft. The image appears to be taken during dusk or overcast conditions, giving the scene a dramatic, high-contrast appearance.
