List of military transport aircraft

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following table compares military transport aircraft built in series or intended for this purpose .

However, it does not provide comprehensive information on the requirements that distinguish tactical transport aircraft (e.g. Transall C-160, Lockheed C-130) from strategic transporters (e.g. Antonov An-124, Lockheed C-5 Galaxy). The Airbus A400M and the Boeing C-17 are positioned in both areas.

The table contains both models whose construction has already been discontinued and those that are not yet in series production .
