History reveals the C-21A fleet began its delivery in April 1984 and was completed by October of the same year. Raytheon Aerospace LLC provides comprehensive contractor logistics support at 12 worldwide locations, ensuring seamless maintenance and upkeep. On April 1, 1997, all continental U.S.-based C-21s were reassigned under Air Mobility Command, with the 375th Airlift Wing at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, as the lead command. C-21s stationed outside the continental United States are assigned to theater commanders. The turbofan engines are strategically mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage, while swept-back wings feature hydraulically actuated, single-slotted flaps for optimal performance. The aircraft boasts a retractable tricycle landing gear, single steerable nose gear, and multiple-disc hydraulic brakes for superior control. The C-21A can accommodate eight passengers and 42 cubic feet (1.26 cubic meters) of cargo, with a fuel capacity of 931 gallons (3,537.8 liters). Refueling is accomplished at ground level through each wingtip tank. The safety and operational capabilities of the C-21A are enhanced by the autopilot, color weather radar, and tactical air navigation system, as well as high frequency, very high frequency, and ultra high frequency radios. The aircraft has a crew of two, who can fly from either cockpit seat, thanks to an automatic navigation system that boosts crew efficiency. Four cathode ray tubes display essential information to the pilots, ensuring seamless operation. Specifications: Primary Function: Passenger and cargo airlift Prime Contractor: Learjet, Inc.
