Joint Forcible Entry Exercise 14B
Well this is a capability you don't see everyday. If the USAF gets serious about this...and if they can include not only the US Army but also the Marine Corps in this planning/exercise then we'll be well on our way to rebuilding our Rapid Deployment Forces again.
An awesome sidenote is that this takes away a huge selling point for the A400M. You won't use either airplane on dirt strips very often but its nice to show that for about the same cost as the turbo prop driven airplane you can get the strategic reach and lift of the C-17.
