Historical background and use of the C-2 GREYHOUND

The C-2 Greyhound is a twin-engine, turboprop transport aircraft developed by Grumman for the United States Navy. Its main task is carrier onboard delivery (COD) – transporting supplies to and from aircraft carriers. The aircraft entered service in the second half of the 1960s – during the Cold War – and since then has played a key role during the logistical missions of the American navy. For example, the C-2 Greyhound was an inseparable component of resupply operations during the Gulf Wars and humanitarian missions around the world.
