They probably can and the Iraqi regular forces probably did during the past 2 wars. The probability of kill is as farfetched as it sounds. Those Atolls probably of little use by now. Missiles have a life limit.

I was being sarcastic :)

 

Upps, not intended to joke with your quote then..:thumbup:

 

I am more interested on the ir/missile, could they be mounted on a simple pickup ?

 

Yes, it´s been done, but the small fragmentation warhead and the seeker makes it, employed in this way, very ineffective and very hard to aim to the intended target(Ground targets).

@ Tomcatter : :thumbup:

Thanks for sharing this beautiful video.

How can we not feel like riding this beast after seeing it ??

I hope ED will make us happy sooner than later with it (without speaking of EDGE of course)

Embraer KC-390. Pretty!

 

Now that's a nice looking Transport... Looks about C-130 size, maybe a little smaller. Its hard to tell. Thanks for the pics.

Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills.

This looks cool, Hopefully ED could get into this as well. It would be cool see ED working with LM or other aircraft companies

To whom it may concern,

I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Thank you for you patience.

 

 

Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..

It can carry about 3 tones more cargo than the C-130. The short C-130 can also carry more cargo than the elongated C-130-30 version.

 

Size sometimes doesn't matter. ;)

Indeed, I threw the size comment out there to speculate on the market they were aiming for. I've done a little more digging and found that the KC-390 has a lot of potential as a tactical transport, tanker and special operations aircraft. I believe there was even mention of its use as a fire fighting aircraft. It looks really promising.
