The 50 gigantic aircraft are just the tip of the iceberg. USAF has huge cargo capacity. Most of the tankers have a cargo deck too and they can be used as slightly smaller cargo aircraft.

C-5M: 52 in service capacity 127 tons.

C-17A: 222 in service, capacity 77 tons.

KC-10A: 59 in service, capacity 77 tons.

KC-135: 396 in service, capacity 38 tons.

C-130: 392 in service, capacity 19 tons.

And that's before you start even digging deep into things like the 30 or so VIP transport airliners the Air Force has that can be quickly converted to carry cargo or the dozens of small turboprops and bizjet type VIP transports.
