The Kawasaki C-1 is a twin-engined short-range military transport, used by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force (JASDF). Development began in 1966 as the JASDF sought to replace its aging World War II-era C-46 Commandos. Production commenced in 1971, and the aircraft remains in service as of 2011.
Kawasaki C-1
Designed to meet a JASDF requirement for a C-46 Commando replacement, the C-1 was first flown on November 12th, 1970. Typical of modern military transport designs, the C-1 has a high-wing, high t-tail configuration to Maximise cabin volume and allow for easy loading through a rear ramp. The C-1 requires a crew of 5 and is capable of lifting 26,000lbs of cargo or 60 fully-equipped troops or 45 paratroops. Political limitations in the 1960s restricted the design to a range of just 700nm, severly limiting the operational capabilities of the C-1.
