Before the C-5 Galaxy, distance ruled warfare and disaster response. Heavy armor crossed oceans by ship, crisis response unfolded at the pace of tides, and global power moved slowly by necessity. Then a single aircraft rewrote those rules. Conceived at the height of the Cold War, the C-5 Galaxy was built to move what no aircraft ever could before-tanks, helicopters, missile systems, hospitals, and entire armies-across continents in hours instead of weeks.C-5 Galaxy: The Dawn of Strategic Airlift tells the full, fact-based story of the world’s largest military aircraft, from its audacious conception and engineering battles to its defining role in Vietnam, Desert Storm, the post-9/11 wars, global humanitarian crises, and great-power competition today. It reveals how the Galaxy reshaped U.S. war planning, transformed NATO deterrence, and became the backbone of modern global logistics.More than a machine, the C-5 emerges as a force that redefined strategic time itself-compressing the world, reshaping response, and proving that mobility is power. This book is the definitive narrative of how one aircraft altered the speed, scale, and reach of modern history.
