A U.S. Marine Corps A/S32A-45, Aircraft Mid-Range Tow Tractor and a Marine Adjustable Cargo Trailer, both assigned to Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 11, Marine Aircraft Group 11, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, are staged on the flightline at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, California, Feb. 28, 2025. The MAC-T, a non-standard asset acquired by MALS-11, was critical for transporting two AGM-84H/K Standoff Land Attack Missile – Expanded Response missiles to Okinawa, Japan, in support of Balikatan 25. With no K-loaders available, the MAC-T enabled safe nose-first loading onto a KC-130J Super Hercules and was offloaded and reused upon arrival. Compatible with all Marine Corps assault support aircraft and the C-17, the MAC-T enhances logistics flexibility by allowing trailers to be linked for larger loads and deployed rapidly as needed.
