de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou STOL Transport Family
The de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou is a twin-engine short-takeoff-and-landing transport designed to move troops, cargo, and casualties between remote or unimproved strips. Its rear loading doors and rugged low-speed handling made the family a consequential tactical-airlift and utility platform for Canada, the United States, Australia, and other operators, while later civil conversions extended the design beyond its military origins.
