A Royal Canadian Airforce Globemaster III on the apron in Iqaluit Nunavut.

The CC-177 Globemaster III strategic airlifter transports troops, cargo and oversized combat equipment. Rapid, reliable and flexible, it is equipped with advanced digital avionics.

The Globemaster can fly long distances and land in remote airfields, making it a premier transporter for military, humanitarian and peacekeeping missions. One of these aircraft can haul three CH-146 Griffon helicopters with refuelling tanks, or up to 102 paratroopers.
