Nice! where were those from?
It will be interesting to see what happens with the RAAF's planned C-27J acquisition now that the USAF are no longer getting theirs (this being a key part of the Australian decision). Mind you, it still makes the most sense from my perspective.
Now, to see one of those in a AC-27J layout would be nicer too.

kit': It was announced by Panetta on 26 January 2012. Alenia Aermacchi then announced that it wouldn't support any ex-USAF C-27Js sold by the US government. In other words, having lost their tie-in to the USAF supply/mtx chain, the RAAF doesn't have the option of picking up cheaper Spartans from the US either.
