Project Objective

Tactical transportation aircrafts are part of a military logistic system. It covers multi-domain operations workhorses, able to take-off and land from/on short unprepared runways, able to transport soldiers, passengers, vehicle and equipment on a low altitude tactical flight to deliver on operational needs. The FASSETT feasibility study aims to carry out a cooperative analysis of the transport aircraft replacement needs of EU Member States on the 2030-2040 horizon and to identify European development opportunities to address strategic gaps.
