Real or fake?

Reverse on the Allisons would give different dust picture I believe.
And what's with the multi blades?

Great way to stuff engines tho.

It's an Airbus A400M - winglets, t-tail, props. It's real.

Fake, I think that the dirt under the wings would have been disturbed by the slide.

Looks faked.

Real plane but fake picture - the A400 hasn't had a test flight yet

Since the roll-out of the first complete A400 was two days ago, I don't think the test program has reached the desert taxi test.

I vote "not real yet".

Cheers

It's a fake. The aircraft is an Airbus A400M, as Gallimaufry pointed out, but it hasn't yet flown - in fact, the prototype was rolled out only this week. This is an advertising picture, Photoshopped to give the right impression.

They just wish they were in a Herc.
