At 222 feet across, almost 300 feet long, and 65 feet tall at its tail, Lockheed Martin's C-5 Galaxy is the largest transport aircraft in the US Air Force. With a cargo hull 121 feet long and 19 feet across, the C-5 is a flying warehouse that can carry a combat-ready military unit or deliver necessary supplies anywhere in the world.
  The C-5 has a cargo capacity of 142 tons, the equivalent of carrying two M1A1 Abrams
tanks,six greyhound buses, or
25,844,746 ping-pong balls.
