Thanks to large fuel tanks the A400M is able to cover long-range strategic missions without in-flight refuelling.

The A400M can be refuelled in flight therefore expanding its payload-range even further.

With a typical payload of 20 tonnes the A400M has an operating range of 3450 nm and thus provides true strategic range capability.
