If Donald Trump does not stop insisting that the United States can and should invade Greenland, France and Denmark have responded to these statements wanting to make a demonstration of military force. Both countries have been conducting tests in northern Greenland of the Airbus A400m aircraft.
This Airbus, a state -of -the -art military transport aircraft, is also a pride of the Andalusian aeronautical industry, since its final assembly is carried out at the company’s plant in San Pablo, Seville. Its development has been promoted by several European countries and Spain has played a key role in its production.
France and Denmark have chosen Greenland to verify the performance of the plane in extreme cold conditions and challenging land, managing to demonstrate that it can operate in scenarios that require a high degree of reliability and resistance. The plane has demonstrated a great capacity to, for example, land on unprepared tracks and transport large loads.
The A400M, with a length of 45 meters and just over 42 meters of size, can fly distances of 8,700 kilometers to an 11,300 meters cruise altitude and a speed of 0.72 macho, according to .
