A "freighter" aircraft is any plane designed to carry cargo rather than passengers. You can generally recognize a freight aircraft by the presence of double doors allowing a pallet of cargo to be loaded with a forklift.

Most civilian airliners are available in a freight configuration, such as the Boeing 747 and Lockheed L-1011. The military generally purchases specially designed aircraft with loading ramps such as the C-130 Hercules or the C-5A Galaxy.
