What is this aeroplane?

Question

I was in the school the other day and I saw a large aeroplane it was grey, it was something to do with going to Iraq.

Does anyone know what it is?

Answer 1

Wow, you really narrowed it down. It is gray and it has wings.

I'm sorry, can't help ya babe.

Answer 2

My guess would be C-5 like the others said, if it was slightly smaller it could have been a KC-135 or such, a refueling tanker.  It was probably a C-5 though.

Answer 3

Let me guess.

A Boeing C.17 Globemaster 3.

A huge freighter about the size of a 747 jumbo jet. The grey paint is low visibility. No doubt carrying freight to support the troops in Iraq.

Answer 4

it was either a c-5 or a c-17

This is a c-5 http://www.aerospaceweb.org/aircraft/tra...

This is a c-17 http://warisboring.com/wp-content/upload...

Both are cargo and go to IRAQ, carrying vechiles and what not.
