there are not enough assets in theatre to allow hub and spoke, and no one stupid enough (thank god) to fly straight into theatre without DAS.
Hopefully our lords and masters will cancel the A400M asap, buy the extra 4/9 C130Js and C17s and we might be able to hub and spoke.

Then with FSTA we might have a chance at operating an up to date AT/AR fleet.

Limited types - just C130J, C17 and A330s. Streamline engineering, spares and training support.

Give us AT crews the tools to provide the service the troops and users require!
