The first of 11 C-5A Galaxies landed at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, Monday and took its place as part of Air Force Reserve Command’s 445th Airlift Wing, which is converting from the C-141. The airplane was made in 1970, Col. Jim Blackman told the Dayton Daily News, but the 445th Operations Group commander said new wings and good depot maintenance have kept the airlifter in good shape.
The Air Force budget would grow to $234 billion while Space Force spending would shrink to $26 billion under the White House's yearly ask.
