1:200 Diecast: USAF Lockheed C-5M Super Galaxy 85-0009 (GeminiJets G2AFO1135)

Serial 85-0009 is a C-5M Super Galaxy assigned to the 433rd Airlift Wing (433 AW), Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC), based at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas. Originally delivered as a C-5B in 1988, the airframe was reengineered into the C-5M standard — receiving four General Electric CF6-80C2 turbofans, a fully modernized glass cockpit, and upgraded hydraulics — under the Reliability Enhancement and Re-engining Program (RERP). The "M" suffix represents the most capable iteration of the Galaxy airframe ever fielded.

Livery & Visual Details

The model carries the standard USAF low-visibility overall grey scheme. "U.S. AIR FORCE" runs across the forward fuselage below the flight deck. The serial "85-0009" appears beneath the cockpit alongside "433 AW" and "AFRC" unit codes. The vertical stabilizer displays a small American flag at the top, "AFRC" lettering, and the Texas state flag — three horizontal bands in blue, white, and red with a lone star — identifying the aircraft's home at Lackland AFB, Texas. Four CF6-80C2 engine nacelles hang under the swept wing, painted in matching grey. The model is presented in flight configuration on a display stand, undercarriage retracted.

Model Craftsmanship & Collectability

Produced by GeminiJets in 1:200 scale with full diecast metal construction. At 37.66 cm / 14.69 in length and 33.95 cm / 13.24 in wingspan, it is one of the largest single models in the GeminiJets 1:200 lineup — a direct reflection of the Galaxy's real-world dimensions. Includes display stand. The C-5M mould captures the Galaxy's distinctive high-set flight deck, slab-sided fuselage, and T-tail profile in accurate proportion.
