Air Transportability
Maximum "homogeneous" load
The following values are computed assuming standard conditions. Aircraft payload/ranger is:
C-5 178,000 pounds at 3,200 nautical miles
C-17 130,00 pounds at 3,200 nautical miles
C-141 60,000 pounds at 3,200 nautical miles
C-130 42,000 pounds at 1,250 nautical miles
Winds and temperature can contribute to reduced weight operations for specific movements.
