They are planning to bring the FB-22 (bomber
version that carries 30 2000 lbs bombs) online in the future.
Umm, not 30 x 2000 lb bombs. 30 x SDBs (small diameter bombs), that weigh
about 265 lbs each.
Also why not market the C-17 to the air freight community?
Because the C-17 couldn't compete in the mainstream commercial air freight
business. Costs way too much when compared to 747s and such.
