Transall C-160
These transporters for military and humanitarian missions are ideal for short- and medium-haul tasks. Following the re-definition of tasks for the Bundeswehr, they have recently also provided the long-range transport capabilities needed. Thanks to their robust landing gear combined with their short takeoff and landing capabilities, these aircraft are highly suited to missions involving the use of rough airstrips.
