The C17 Winged Mammoth is the Tier 7 reward in the 9th Boss Strike event, Rebel Sergeant Ludlow, and a prize unit for the second arena challenge for the 26th through 2000th ranking guilds. "Napalm 'Rise and Shine'" is a reference to the quote "I love the smell of napalm in the morning" from the film Apocalypse Now. The helicopter was based on the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey, a VTOL helicopter used for transport and combat missions.
