C-17 Globemaster III (AMC)
Image shown is a C-17 from the 535th Airlift Sqn, not necessarily one of the ones used for air-launch.
The C-17 used for airdrops west of Kauai were probably based at Hickam as part of USAF 535th Airlift Sqn..
but environmental assessment reports indicate the air launch flights take off from PMRF (Kauai).
Rockets used: LRALT,SRALT,MRT,E-LRALT,eMRBM,IRBM-T1,MRBM-T2
