The Revamped C-5 Takes Flight: The C-5M Super Galaxy, the recently unveiled modernized version of the huge airlifter, made its first flight at Dobbins ARB, Ga., Monday, reports UPI news service. Air Force officials expect the avionics and engine modernization program to extend the service life of the C-5 to 2040.
Members of the House Armed Services Committee say the AIM-260 Joint Advanced Tactical Missile program has been set back three months due to the ongoing government shutdown. The comment is noteworthy because the JATM's status has been kept tightly under wraps.
