Here's The Largest Military Transport Aircraft Ever Built that Shocked the World The ransport vehicles are critical for the logistics of an army, as military equipment and manpower need continuous supplies like fuel and food. Although, transport vehicles that are big enough can carry whole units, like main battle tanks or aircraft. In the air, Them have transport helicopters and transport aircraft. Some of these aircraft are so big that they can carry hundreds of soldiers, a bunch of military vehicles, or tons of supplies. Let's have a look at these aerial vehicles while ranking them by their total capacity. Source:  Military Equipment

The US Air Force is one of the deadliest military might in the world. It has the F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II planes. Its fleet will soon be filled with newly baptized F-15EX Eagle II warplanes.  In fact, the us Air Force recently took delivery of the second F-15EX fighter aircraft from a consortium led by Boeing. The F-15EX fighter jet is powered by two F110-GE-129 engines, with each generating a thrust of 29,000lb. The advanced two-seater fighter jet has a length of 19.45m, a width of 13.05m and height of 18.54m. It has an empty weight of 14,500kg while the maximum take-off weight of the aircraft is 37,000kg. It can launch hypersonic weapons up to 22ft-long, providing advantage in future near-peer conflicts. The aircraft can be operated by a single pilot and has an increased payload capacity.

NASA's new X-59 supersonic jet arrived this month at Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works facility in Palmdale for assembly, ahead of a flight test expected this year. NASA’s X-59 is designed to fly at supersonic speeds without making sonic booms. Instead, because of its shape, it is expected to produce quieter sonic ‘thumps’ that can barely be heard on the ground. The company’s Fort Worth facility is where the F-16 was built for many years. Test equipment still available needed some modifications to handle the X-59’s longer nose compared to the F-16, but those changes didn’t get in the way. #6thgenerationfighter #shorts #aircraft #airforce Source:  Military Equipment

The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is an American family of single-seat, single-engine,  all-weather stealth multirole combat aircraft that is intended to perform both air superiority and strike missions.  Billions of dollars have been expended on the development of the F-35. Apart from being too expensive, the F-35 is also technologically advanced and is currently the pinnacle of aircraft technology. We think the F-35 is the coolest fighter jet ever to take flight, and here's why. Source: Military Equipment

The A-10 Thunderbolt II is the first Air Force aircraft specially designed for close air support of ground forces. They are simple, effective and survivable twin-engine jet aircraft that can be used against light maritime attack aircraft and all ground targets, including tanks and other armored vehicles. The A-10 Thunderbolt II, affectionately nicknamed “The Warthog,” was developed for the United States Air Force by the OEM Team from Fairchild Republic Company, now a part of Northrop Grumman Corporation Aeronautics Systems Eastern Region located in Bethpage NY and St. The Thunderbolt II can employ a wide variety of conventional munitions, including general purpose bombs, cluster bomb units, laser guided bombs, joint direct attack munitions or JDAM, wind corrected munitions dispenser or WCMD, AGM-65 Maverick and AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles, rockets, illumination flares, and the GAU-8/A 30mm cannon, capable of firing 3,900 rounds per minute to defeat a wide variety of targets including tan
