The Airbus A400M Atlas is a European four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft. It was designed by Airbus Military, now Airbus Defence and Space, as a tactical airlifter with strategic capabilities to replace older transport aircraft such as the Transall C-160 and the Lockheed C-130 Hercules. The A400M is sized between the C-130 and the Boeing C-17 Globemaster III. | Ultimate Military Channel

Airlifter, workhorse, engine for growth - the #A400M fulfills many roles in the UK. 🇬🇧 On Sunday, we celebrated the 10th anniversary since delivery of the first A400M. Since then, the aircraft has been a key asset for the Royal Air Force in their daily operations. With all A400M wings made in Filton and servicing of the RAF fleet at RAF Brize Norton, the UK has played an important role in this multi-national project.

The mighty @airbus A400M Atlas – an engineering powerhouse that bridges the gap between strategic and tactical airlift. Powered by four Europrop TP400-D6 turboprop engines (the most powerful ever fitted to a Western propeller aircraft), the A400M cruises at nearly Mach 0.72, flies up to 37,000 feet, and can carry a payload of up to 37 tonnes, almost twice that of the C-130 Hercules. It’s designed to operate from short and semi-prepared runways, a capability that’s critical for frontline missions

From rough terrain operations to helicopter air-to-air refuelling and special operations missions, the French #A400M fleet is seeing real action and now it's ready for even more.
