Hol...?!? Én küldtem neked 1 linket, mely szerint stratégiai /mert annak készült/, de abban nincs "és". Három "poros" videótól nem lesz taktikai...!
Te elolvastad a pdf-et, amit linkeltem?
De bemásolom a lényeget:
<i>Forward Operating Site (FOS) Carlson in Afghanistan—established by the 27th Engineer Battalion (Combat) (Airborne) to support counterinsurgent operations in a critical border area—is an excellent example of joint projection of combat power into an undeveloped, non-permissive area.
The site is austere and high-altitude, with no road access. In April 2004, five C-17s began to establish the FOS, conducting the largest airdrop of Army engineer equipment since World War II. <b>After the hasty work of expeditionary engineers, C-17s performed routine landings on a dirt landing strip.</b> At the end of construction, FOS Carlson had a 7,200-foot runway capable of C-17 operations and an 80,000-gallon refueling system.</i>
Ez nagyon nem három "poros videóról" szól.
És hogy stratégiai és taktikai?
Pl. a gyártó oldalán:
http://www.boeing.com/boeing/defense-space/military/c17/
<i>"A high-wing, 4-engine, T-tailed military-transport aircraft, the multi-service C-17 can carry large equipment, supplies and troops directly to small airfields in harsh terrain anywhere in the world day or night. The massive, sturdy, long-haul aircraft tackles distance, destination and heavy, oversized payloads in unpredictable conditions. It has delivered cargo in every worldwide operation since the 1990s."</i>
A hivatalos, légierőbeni meghatározása pedig a "dual-role" vagyis stratégiai és taktikai. Eleve ez is volt a követelmény a kifejlesztésénél:
<i>Although canceled, the Advanced Medium Short-Takeoff-and-Landing Transport (AMST) is significant as the genesis of the C-17 Globemaster III. Initially, the AMST was slated to replace the Vietnam-worn C-130 tactical airlift aircraft.
Politics, inflation, and national security priorities, however, redirected the program and ultimately brought forth the acquisition of the C-17. The two programs have many similarities, sharing the same acquisition philosophy as well as facing similar funding difficulties and adverse politics. Additionally, the YC-14 and YC-15 prototypes and the subsequent growth studies served as the starting point for designing the C-17. The AMST also bestowed upon the C-17 its tactical and small, austere airfield characteristics. Lastly, the canceled AMST provided the impetus for a radical change in airlift doctrine. Limited resources, pressing airlift requirements, evolving national security threats, and technological advances eventually drove leaders to reject the rigid segregation of tactical and strategic airlift.
The merging of these two missions resulted in the C-17 gaining its dual role and outsize cargo capability. Thus, understanding the C-17 acquisition program
commences with the AMST program.</i>
<i>"The C-17 Globemaster III is truly an awesome, dual-role airlifter."</i>
<i>"The C-17’s dual-role and
direct delivery capabilities enabled it to adjust well to evolving requirements."</i>

És nézd el nekem, ha a légierő doksijának hiszek.
A harctéren meg nem számít sem a videó, sem a meghatározás. Különösen ha csak 1 kisebb gépek fogadására alkalmas szükségrepteret lehet kialakítani. És ha a C-17 csak 200 km-rel távolabb tud leszállni...?!? Nem véletlen, hogy Ausztrália 3 különböző szállítógépet /Spartan, Hercules, Globemaster/ tart szolgálatban....
Persze, ezért is hoztam fel a C-27-es példát, Mert van, ahol még a C-27 le tud szállni, a C-130 meg nem. Ugyanígy, ahol a C-130 igen, de az A400M már nem. És ahol az A400M igen, de a C-17 már nem. De ezek közül mindegyik gép alkalmas taktikai használatra, viszont azon belül már nem egy kategóriába tartoznak és ezt nem is vitatom. Viszont, önkényesen meghúzni a C-17 és az A400M között a taktikaiság határvonalát, nem figyelembe véve azt, hogy akkor ezen az alapon ugyanígy meg lehetne húzni a C-27 és a C-130 között is, háááááát... Ugye érted?
