I feel that the H-6K model could be developed into a tanker as well, sure it's perhaps not as good as Y-20, but it would be much better than the current H-6U, which is based on an older H-6 model.

I don't know but I guesss:

If it is not a hook to hold something from going out, it could be a pusher. I imagine that the cargo would normally slid out by gravity, that needs the aircraft flying slightly head up. But if the wind/altitude/turbulance situation force the aircraft not to provide enough angle for a moment, one may have to give a little push.

Another possibility is that it is blade to cut entangled rope. Heavy cargo are usually pulled out of the hold by deploying a small parachute. The rope of it can get entangled with protrusions of the plane. A blade on a long pole can get rid of the cargo and clear the way.

Come on guys ... seems most likely some sort of misunderstanding of a simple question ... as such leave it even if the question "What's this soldier doing with that tool in his hands?" is still not answered.

But Deino that guy By78 is rude and has no manner , obnoxious but you seem to give him some slack!



I must admit I only read some posts since recently the number of reports, complaints and so on increased dramatically and that all besides the most weird stuff at school.
As such I had no time to read and consider each individually. All i did was to delete all off topic post, to ask for a return to a civilised discussion (to all) and reminded that the original question is indeed still not answered.

Sorry if I missed anything.
