C-27J Spartan History:
The C-27J Spartan is a tactical transport aircraft launched in 1997. It incorporates the same propulsion system and advanced avionics as the C-130J Hercules Transporter. The C-27J has been developed by Lockheed Martin Alenia Tactical Transport Systems (LMATTS). LMATTS is a joint venture company based in Marietta, Georgia, which was set up by Lockheed Martin and Alenia Aeronautica, which is part of the Finmeccanica company of Italy.
The first flight of the development aircraft was in September 1999 and the aircraft received full Italian military type certification in December 2001. The Italian Air Force has ordered 12 aircraft to replace the G.222. Deliveries began in January 2007 and were completed in May 2009 with the delivery of 12 C-27J aircraft.
The C-27J is in service with the Air Forces of Greece, Italy, Lithuania and Bulgaria. The aircraft is also under production for the U.S. Army and Air Force’s Joint Cargo Aircraft (JCA) program. The C-27J is the best selling twin-turboprop military tactical airlifter in the world, ordered by six air forces: Italian (12 aircraft), Greek (12, plus 3 options), Lithuanian (3), Bulgarian (5) and by the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force (78), for a total of 110 aircraft. Furthermore, the C-27J has also been selected by the Romanian Air Force for 7 aircraft, with a contract currently under negotiation.
