Passenger Aircraft. The C-20 is a military modification of the commercial Gulfstream aircraft, manufactured by Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation (GAC) Savannah, Georgia. The C-20 aircraft provide distinguished visitor (DV) airlift for military and government officials. They support the long range/low passenger load DV airlift niche, offering worldwide access while including a communications suite which supports worldwide secure voice and data communications for the DV and staff. The C-20A and B modes are powered by two Rolls Royce Spey Mark 511-8 engines. The primary difference between the C-20A and B model is the electrical system and the avionics package. Two Rolls Royce Tay Mark 611-8 engines power the C-20H. The Tay Mark 611-8 engines provide greater performance, greater range and are quieter than A and B models. The C-20H is also slightly longer than A and B models, and has an upgraded avionics package and interior. The C-20 is one of the mainstays of AMC's special air mission [SAM] fleet.

Their mission, often dealing with highly visible and sensitive diplomatic issues, requires the utmost physical and communications security as SAM passengers conduct highly sensitive business enroute. Mission protocol dictates the use of civilian airports almost exclusively. The 89th Airlift Wing, Andrews Air Force Base, MD, operates five B-model and two H-model C-20s for worldwide special air missions. The 86th Airlift Wing, Ramstein Air Base, Germany, operates three A-models for operational support airlift. The C-20 was chosen in June 1983 as the replacement aircraft for the C-140B Jetstar, and three A models were delivered to the 89th Airlift Wing at Andrews Air Force Base MD under a cost-saving accelerated purchase plan. The C-20A was first leased as a replacement to the C-140 Jetstar by the Air Force in 1983. They were later purchased outright and a contract for the purchase of eight more modified Gulfstream III aircraft designated C-20B (Air Force owned), C-20C (Army owned), and C-20D (Navy owned) was enacted in 1986. The three C-20As at Andrews were subsequenty transferred to Ramstein Air Base, Germany, and all C-140Bs at both locations were phased out of the Air Force inventory. Seven B-model C-20s fly special air missions from Andrews. The primary difference between the C-20A and B model is the electrical system and the avionics package. In 1992, Gulfstream delivered their latest model, the C-20H (Gulfstream IV) to Andrews AFB. Gulfstream III (wallpaper 3). Gulfstream III aircraft images wallpaper gallery 3.
