A special model of Lockheed C-5

[wzy312]

I got this special photo in chance,but it isn't very clear.

It seems like a C-5 with something on its body, which similar to the additional fuel tank of U-2R.


Does anyone have some information of this special C-5? Or other photos of this special one?


Thank you in advance.

It's CGI from a movie. I don't the the movie ever explains what it's supposed to be.

As far as I knew, U-2R has a satellite communication antennae inside it's upper radome, not fuel tank.

The only huge aircraft,which could be transferring into AWACS as a project,the
Antonov An-124.

Not enough wheels for an An-124 or a C-5. And as I have a couple of 1/72 scale C-5's and trying to compare them with what I see in the photo, it's not a C-5 either.

Pretty sure it is a C-5, just at very low resolution in these screen captures.

How long you are going to discuss credibility and details of a fantastic movie CGI plane?

How long are people going to argue "who's the better Captain, Kirk or Picard" before everyone finally recognizes that it's John "Nuke 'Em" Sheridan? Nerding-out has no time limit.
