The first
C-27J for the RAAF (photo : Alenia Aermacchi)
The fuselage
of the first C-27J for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) has arrived at the
Alenia Aermacchi
Turin plant for final assembly.
Manufactured
at Alenia Aermacchi’s Capodichino Naples site, the fuselage, reached Turin both
by truck (from Capodichino
to the Port of Naples and from Genoa to Turin) and sea freight (from Naples to
Genoa).
The
Australian order for 10 aircraft was placed through the US Foreign Military
Sales Joint Cargo Aircraft program last
May.
The first
C-27J will arrive in Australia in early 2015, and will be used for tactical
airlift. They will replace the piston-engine Caribou, which were retired in
2009 after 45 years of service.
In the
tactical transport role, the C-27J provides the best possible integration with
the existing Australian Defence
Force fleet. It will provide an airlift capability between the CH-47 Chinook
and C-130J Hercules, as well as integrating with the much larger C-17A
Globemaster.
