CAC to develop longer range C-440 "strategic transport"

The Clone state manufacturer CAC (Clone Aircraft Corporation) has said it will develop a longer range version of its iconic C-440 transport which serves in great numbers in the HCSAF (and is also used by the DDS). The longer ranged variant would be what CAC call a "strategic transport" upgrade for the type as it would also have improved avionics and cargo capacity through a larger fuselage.

Meanwhile CAC's rival CCA (Clone Commercial Aviation) has delivered the first C-380 Skyshuttle to the HCSAF. This new generation medium transport is based on the successful CCA 380 regional airliner. It will replace the ageing C-420 and maybe also the VC-370.
