Note that the headline means it's the first time a C-17 airlifted a reactor. Of course we airlifted many reactors in other types of aircraft: a swimming pool reactor from ORNL to Geneva in 1955, a TRIGA to Geneva in 1958, the PM-1 military microreactor from Baltimore to Montana in 1961, a few TOPAZ-II space reactors in 1992.
