The fact it is STOL is amazing

[@youtube.youtube.01]

It doesn't have STOL. STOL Requires taking off in less than 1,500 feet and clearing a 50 foot object at the end upon take-off. At 3:10 they published a take-off run of 1,903 ft.

[@sundownerstudios4614]

Having flown on the C-27J Spartan aircraft, I was very impressed with the flight characteristics and unimproved runway capabilities. It is such a beautiful and capable aircraft. Well done, Leonardo!

[@johnaustin6673]

Well done Lockheed Martin

[@mariorossi8401]

@@johnaustin6673 Vi piacerebbe! purtoppo per voi Leonardo è un azienza italiana e tale rimarrà .Tenetevi le vostre porcherie che imponete al resto del mondo spacciandole per" the best " che non sono neanche personalizzabili in base alle esigenze delle singole forze armate ,quando siete nei casini come ad esempio con i mezzi anfibi dei Marines dell' ante guerra( mi riferisco a quella del vietnam) in cui muoiono soldati, annegati durante delle esercitazioni o nel caso delle fregate che si basano su disegni degli anni sessanta ed erano gia obsolete quando sono entrate in servizio poi vi rivolgete all' Italia in fretta e furia affinché costruisca il meglio che c' è sul mercato mondiale e proprio brutta l' invidia e anche l' ignoranza!!!!

It would not be what it is today without Lockheed Martin. It was good (had potential) Lockheed Martin made it great. Your Welcome

[@arminius8631]

Let's hope it has improved manufacturing quality.

[@gregs7562]

Something for the UK/RAF to consider when they retire all their C130 & BAE 146 In a few years.

[@nocalsteve]

This aircraft isn’t in the same class as a C-130 or BAE 146.

[@gregs7562]

@@nocalsteve no but its more than the 146 QT which they have/had 2 off.

[@jamesbartlett5640]

I agree it's perfect for RAF its the go between A400M and like there BAe 146QT they had, also perfect for the SAS/SBS which is why we still have the Hercules at moment I believe.

[@tommypaget2294]

RAF C-130J would probably serve for the next few years more, like 45 years more.

[@tommypaget2294]

This aircraft was bought brand new by the US for Afghan Airforce, used for 3 years and then destroyed by backhoe by US contractors.

[@lokesh303101]

Far Better.

The c-27j is far superior when compared to the c-295

[@alessandrobarbier5098]

In my opinion it continue to be too short, maybe only two meters longer was enough.

[@mysteryY2K]

buy an ATR or C-295 then

[@sdfft820]

Wasn’t this the Italian G222?

[@matty82003]

It's an evolution of the old G222

[@williamhutchinson7]

You can tell hes reading a promotional script lol, nice plane tho

[@michaelmulligan0]

Will the US let it be sold though?

[@michaelmulligan0]

@Truth is a bannable offence apologies got it the wrong way around. In 2012, the USAF announced it was retiring 21 x C27Js and Alenia stated that if the USAF sold them to another country they would not support them. They were subsequently transferred to US SOCOM and USCG

[@RobertLewis-el9ub]

@@michaelmulligan0 Australia bought them from the US. Currently not certified for battlefield operations.

[@camomiletea6708]

Ask the Australian Defence Force and Royal Australian Air Force for the aircraft’s operational history……….

Speaking without knowledge, uh? Never heard about the G222? Go reading about it and speak then ;)

[@Valentino6977]

It is very expensive and the fuel consumption is higher also than the competition, the cabin outward vision is poor. The type of window or windshield design is outdated today for a modern aircraft.

[@marcspector4997]

The high fuel consumption is evident for an aircraft with unmatched load capacity and performance at that size. The windows are the same as those of any other military transport aircraft. The only difference is having additional ones allowing a wider view.

[@aderitodealmeida5644]

Expensive? What is the average unit cost?

[@ctwentysevenj6531]

It has the best performance than any other twin turbo prop military transport plane. It is far more superior when compared to the c-295.

[@walterF205]

Choosing the c-295 simply means having lesser needs, so we might as well buy aircraft with smaller capacities.

[@ctwentysevenj6531]

@@walterF205 however using a transport plane to supply an army outpost, you need a transport plane that can land in short runways and take a variety of loads. Like light military vehicles, generators, weapons systems, general supplies etc. Having a plane that can only take a limit amount of different cargo can leave these military outpost not getting what they need.
