Heaviest Single Load Record Comes After Longest Object Dropped
Last Year
A team comprised of AirLaunch LLC, DARPA and the US Air Force
made history this week, as a simulated AirLaunch QuickReach(TM)
rocket weighing 65,000 lbs was dropped out of a C-17A cargo
aircraft -- the heaviest single load to ever be dropped out of the
plane.
