Frazzled: Is c27j worth getting or just get more Herc's and let teh chinooks do the caribou type stuff

That is exactly why the Caribou replacement was put off, after C-295 was selected over C-27J in the first place. No doubt, having seen C-27J at AVN last week doing aeros it is an impressive airframe - but can a C-130J and CH-47F mix do that job? If so, makes sense.
