The Silver Bullet for Sec'y of Defense & Others

[RaleighGuy]

Lots of talk about Sec'y of Defense taking a C-17 to Germany this week for his trip, and whether it was comfortable. Senior Gov't officials often travel with what is known as the "Silver Bullet" a enclosed command and control center that fits in the back of a C-17 aircraft, is sound proof, and has a built in comms suite for whatever emergency may arise during travels. Below is an old video giving you a tour of the Silver Bullet, however I'm sure it has been upgraded since this video was produced.
