[edit] Explanation
I created this page while adding infoboxes to the C-135 and C-97 pages. All pages for C-137 and VC-137 were redirected to the Air Force One page. I felt it was needed because the Boeing 707 article hardly mentions the military models.
I chose C-137 Stratoliner as the title in preference to some version of VC-137, as I wanted to cover all of the 707 military models in brief, including those with their own pages. All variations of "C-137" (Boeing C-137, VC-137, etc.) should redirect here.
The VC-137s are covered the most here, with brief mentions of the other variants. However, I have not elaborated on the Air Force One models here, as they are covered in great detail on that page.
I created this page by cut-and-pasting the C-135 Stratolifter page, and used its format as a guide. I have tried to correct everything thoughout the page to the C-137, but there may be things that I missed.
Feel free to help improve this article as you can. The specs need to be double-checked and expanded. The "Designation sequence" also needs to be added (There were none on the C-135/KC-135 pages). We could use a better lead pic, preferably of a VC-137 model. As the text is expanded, we could add a few more pics of the other military 707 types.
