C-17 delivering this massive device, a Jumbo Drop Test Vehicle (JDTV) over the Yuma Proving Ground back in 2011. Up to this point, 85,000 lbs was the heaviest airdropped item in history of any airframe. Of course the Moose can do so much more than those four fan flying trash cans . So while everyone is losing their mind over the puny (21,600 lbs) GBU-43/B MOAB, the Moose is quietly raising the bar.
