A visitor from United States posted Fri May 7, 2010: Do you expect Lockheed to use a C-5? I suppose a C-130 might work, but it's probably cheaper to use a 737 than to take a plane they were going to sell to do flight tests.
A visitor from United States posted Tue December 25, 2007: The only thing missing is a pair of P&W F135 motors (although the Lightning II only needs one !)...
