Since you seem to be the Airbus/MAC mouthpiece of the moment....
You say max payload 37 T, but how much of a payload is envisaged over strat distances of say 2000, 1500 and 1000nm - as rough figures. Cos for sure, HMG/MOD will want it as a 'cheap' stratlifter not a Taclifter. I wonder how that compares to C17, herc (J or K)? Oh, and I assume a 3 person flt-deck comes as standard with armour, DAS and NVGs or are we going to have the same shambles as the J model/C17 endured during intro to service?
