A U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III, assigned to Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina, approaches a KC-135 Stratotanker assigned to MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, for refueling over the Atlantic Ocean, March 11, 2025. The C-17 is capable of rapid strategic delivery of troops and all types of cargo to main operating bases or directly to forward bases in the deployment area. The aircraft can perform tactical airlift and airdrop missions and can transport litters and ambulatory patients during aeromedical evacuations. The inherent flexibility and performance of the C-17 force improve the ability of the total airlift system to fulfill the worldwide air mobility requirements of the United States.
