Moving the void
Nutloose
"Finally something to take the capability void left by the Belfast, a mid range lifter that slots in between the Herc and a C17."
Only in RAF service it doesn't slot in there. To help fill the 'Defence black hole' our A400 are not complementing the Herc capability but replacing it.
Got an important (to you) load? Too much for a CH47? You'll soon have to wait until the next A400 is filled.
