Australian AF C-17 rough field landing.
Many A-400 proponents tout its rough field landing capability as the reason for being when it comes to choosing it over the C-17 despite the difference in cost being only 8-10 million dollars.
The Australians though seem quite pleased with the C-17's ability in the rough.
