It takes a special aircraft to deliver supplies, people, and mail to an aircraft carrier at sea, and for decades that aircraft has been the Grumman C-2 Greyhound. The twin-engine high-wing designed for carrier onboard delivery (COD) has now made its final carrier delivery.
According to the U.S. Navy, the C-2 made its final arrested landing and catapult launch aboard the USS Nimitz on June 25. The aircraft has been in service since 1965, and quickly became the workhorse of the fleet, as it could land and take off from a ship at sea.
