C-133 Cargomaster - the grandfather of big airlifters
The Douglas C-133 Cargomaster is a heavy military cargo aircraft developed by Douglas Aircraft in the mid-1950s. It is the first strategic turboprop airlifted in the US Armed Forces. It was actively used in the transportation of heavy and oversized cargo, including ballistic missiles and space launch vehicles.
The aircraft incorporated many innovations of its time, giving rise to major changes in technology and concepts used in military transport aviation until now. However, a very large amount of innovations led to the risks increase: the C-133 was not sufficiently reliable and safe, which limited its service life. A total of 50 units were produced.
