Aeritalia G.222 – 写真とビデオ

ザ アエリタリアG.222 (formerly Fiat Aviazione, later Alenia Aeronautica) is a medium-sized STOL military transport aircraft. It was developed to meet a NATO specification, but Italy was initially the only NATO member to adopt the type. The United States purchased a small number of G.222s, designating them the C-27A Spartan. A modernised variant, the Alenia C-27J Spartan, has been developed. While it retains many aspects of the original aircraft, the C-27J adopts the same engines and many of the systems used on the larger Lockheed Martin C-130J Super Hercules.

The G.222 first flew in 1970 and entered service with the Italian Air Force in 1978. It was also exported to several countries, including the United States, which designated it as the C-27A Spartan.
