The '''[[Pello Corporation|Pello]] STV-244''' (Standard Transport ''Volar'' 224) is a [[Urcean]] four-engine turboprop military transport aircraft designed and built originally by the [[Pello Corporation]]. Capable of using unprepared runways for takeoffs and landings, the STV-244 was originally designed as a troop, medevac, and cargo transport aircraft. The versatile airframe has found use as a platform for a variety of other roles, including as a gunship, for airborne assault, search and rescue, scientific research support, weather reconnaissance, aerial refueling, maritime patrol, and aerial firefighting. It is now the main tactical airlifter for several military forces worldwide. More than 40 variants of the 244, including civilian versions, operate around the world. | |||
