Strange looking beast with two counter-rotating eight bladed props on each wing. Quiet, though, compared to a Hercules or Transall.

We had one doing circuits and bumps a few months back and you didn't know it was there until it was directly overhead.

Was watching this earlier on Flightradar24. It was doing north-south circuits over the Isle of Wight as well.
I wonder what it was actually doing. Russian sub in the Solent?
