Although the F-60U looks very much like the Fokker 50 it was developed from (which in itself derives from the F-27) it is a bit longer than the F-50 and has a large cargo door so it can transport F-16 jet engines. It was produced on request of the Dutch Air Force, who needed it to replace its ageing F-27 Friendship transport aircraft.
The F-60U is a typical military transport aircraft and can be used for many tasks. Apart from transporting large items, the plane can be quickly adapted for passengers, medical transport, and dropping paratroops. |
