Has it been disclosed which specific branch of SOCOM is to receive the reassigned aircraft? This could affect the "operators" listing. If it were USASOC, for instance, wouldn't the US Army be considered a user by extension? Or if it's AFSOC then the US Air Force could still be considered a user, right? 131.123.21.34 ( talk) 20:02, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
This USCG page suggests the Coast Guard's aircraft are just called C-27. Nigel Ish ( talk) 23:25, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

@Fnlayson: I just wanted to explain my revert of your last edit. Please read MOS:NUMNOTES. "Comparable values should be all spelled out or all in figures, even if one of the numbers would normally be written differently: patients' ages were five, seven, and thirty-two or ages were 5, 7 and 32, but not ages were five, seven and 32." I think that this used to say "in the same sentence" and I don't know why that would have changed. I really don't think that the MOS intends that an entire paragraph or article must have ALL figures or ALL spelled-out numbers if there is a mixture of cases. Cheers!

So the company is just offering this model as the "C-27J", and that's what the Italian Air Force and all these other nations are calling it, even though that's specifically the US military designation for it? Or are we just calling everything by the US designation, to hell with what they actually call it themselves? Idumea47b ( talk) 09:05, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
