Airbus is positioning the A400M, not as a competitor to existing cargo planes, but as an aircraft that could fill gaps in the fleet. “It is a capability that does not exist today in the U.S. inventory,” said Allan McArtor, chairman and CEO of Airbus Group Inc.

Airbus executives have been marketing the A400M at the Pentagon for some time, pointing out that it can carry heavier loads than the C-130 and can land where a C-17 can’t. “It fits into a very attractive niche,” McArtor told National Defense in an interview. “It’s an important missing piece for U.S. airlift.”
