SUPERB DISPLAY: Italian Air Force C-27J Spartan Display RAF Fairford RIAT 2022

Not often you see this, a giant performing spectacular manoeuvres in the skies for a graceful, yet breathtaking display. Similar to the Hercules, this Leonardo C-27J Spartan of the IAF takes to the skies over RAF Fairford, to perform some majestic manoeuvres. So what is a C-27 Spartan and is it similar to the Hercules C-130? Firstly, you will notice that the C-27 has two engines and not four. It is powered by 2 × Rolls-Royce AE2100-D2A turboprop Engines, 3,458 kW (4,637 hp) each. These are a 6 blade engine compositions. The C-130 Hercules uses the AE2100 engines too but a different variant, the AE 2100D3. When it comes to size there is a huge difference. The C-27 is smaller in size with a wingspan of the C-27 28.7m (94' 2") against the 40.41 m (132' 7") of the mighty Hercules. The C-27 has a length of 22.7 m (74' 6") compared to the 29.79 m (97" 9"). However, at a quick glance, they do look similar. The C-27J is widely recognised as the most effective multi-role military transport aircraft in its size class. Used in the most challenging operational environments, from the high altitudes of the Andes to Afghanistan, the C-27J’s performance and operating efficiency are enabled by new avionics, featuring a glass cockpit with five multi-functional colour screens, a radar system for tactical transport missions and advanced communication systems. The system architecture guarantees interoperability with other transport aircraft and can be easily integrated with in-flight refuelling, self-protection, secure communications and ballistic protection, allowing the aircraft to operate in high threat environments, transporting materials, light vehicles and personnel to wherever they are needed. The C-27J can operate in complete autonomy thanks to its Auxiliary Power Unit (APU). The C-27J boasts the largest cargo compartment in its category, capable of supporting about five tonnes per square metre and adjustable in height and inclination for easy loading and unloading. With the best descent and climb rates (4,000ft/min and 2,500 ft/min), it can perform tactical manoeuvres at 3g and is qualified for short take-off and landing (STOL) on snowy, sandy and unprepared runways. You will see the impressive take off and landing in the video. A multitude of kits and easy to install and transportable roll-on/roll-off mission systems allow the C-27J to be rapidly transformed into the configuration required for the relevant mission. As a ‘tactical airlifter’, the aircraft’s versatility extends from airlifts of troops and cargo to airdrops of paratroopers and materials, from medical battlefield evacuation to VIP transportation, from humanitarian assistance and natural disaster response to firefighting. The C-27J can be configured in the Maritime Patrol (MPA), Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) and Command-Control-Communications, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C3ISR) versions. The C-27J Spartan has a top cruise speed of 325 KTS (374mph / 602 kmh), not bad! As mentioned in the other video, only the Reparto Sperimentale Volo (RSV) which is similar to our 41 TES (Test and Evaluation Squadron) can become qualified to perform displays at airshows and venues. The RSV ( Reparto Sperimentale Volo) is the Italian Flight Test Wing comprising Gruppo volo (311 Gruppo), Gruppo Technico (Technical Squadron) and a Gruppo Gestione Software (Software management Squadron). RSV is part of Centro Sperimentale Volo ( Flight Test Centre) located at Pratica di Mare near Rome. #RIAT2022 #raffairford #c27spartan #iaf For more info: Leonardo C-27J Spartan https://aircraft.leonardo.com/en/prod...
