This week the British Embassy Nur-Sultan hosted a visit by the @RoyalAirForce and an A400(M). This is an advanced and proven aircraft for strategic airlift with the capability to carry bulky and heavy loads into isolated locations even those with small and unprepared airstrips.
Flight Lieutenant (Captain) James Lee explained the aircraft’s capabilities and the RAF’s operational experience to Askar Mamin @primeministerkz, Nurlan Yermekbayev, the Minister of Defence @modgovkz, Yurii Ilyin, the Minister of Emergency Situations, and other officials.
During this briefing the A400M was loaded with an Arlan armoured wheeled vehicle, later in the day a second Arlan was also loaded. Airbus Test Pilots demonstrated the technical capabilities of the aircraft to Air Force officers.
