Transport planes will become missile carriers.

Transport planes will become missile carriers.

The US Air Force says it will soon be able to fire cruise missiles from transport planes. It is related to the FAMM program - "Family of Accessible Mass Missiles".

One of the areas of FAMM (FAMM-Palletized) involves the delivery of palletized missiles for use by transport aircraft by dropping them from the cargo hold. The tank is dropped, the parachute opens and then the rockets are launched.

As an example, one of the generals cited the C-130 and C-17 aircraft, which would be able to "carry out massive strikes" using FAMM-P.
