Comfortable new troop carrier is equipped with ZIM seats

“Our soldiers will certainly now travel a bit more comfortably to their missions abroad,” said Air Force inspector Lieutenant General Ingo Gerhartz in an interview with aerotelegraph.com. What did he mean by that? The Bundeswehr's flight readiness received the first of two new Airbus A321 LR aircraft at the ILA trade fair at the end of June. The aircraft, built by Lufthansa Technik, is equipped with ZIM Aircraft Seating seats. In future, up to 136 soldiers and other members of the Bundeswehr will be able to fly comfortably on them to missions all over the world.
