The C-9 Skytrain II is the military version of the McDonnell Douglas DC-9 employed in US military service. The C-9 fleet is located throughout the continental United States, Europe, and Asia. The Navy and Marine Corps C-9 aircraft provide cargo and passenger transportation as well as forward deployment logistics support. The Air Force C-9s are used for medical evacuation (these aircraft are called Nightingales), passenger transportation, and special missions. A C-9 was chosen to replace NASA's aging Vomit Comet.
