The Boeing YC-14 is a twinjet short take-off and landing (STOL) tactical military transport aircraft. It was Boeing's entrant into the United States Air Force's Advanced Medium STOL Transport (AMST) competition, which aimed to replace the Lockheed C-130 Hercules as the USAF's standard STOL tactical transport. Although both the YC-14 and the competing McDonnell Douglas YC-15 were successful, neither aircraft entered production.

 

 

Die Boeing YC-14 ist ein zweistrahliges taktisches Militärtransportflugzeug mit kurzem Start und Landungseigenschaften (STOL). Es war Boeings Muster am Wettbewerb Advanced Medium STOL Transport (AMST) der United States Air Force, der darauf abzielte, die Lockheed C-130 Hercules als Standard-STOL-taktisches Transportmittel der USAF zu ersetzen. Obwohl sowohl die YC-14 als auch die konkurrierende McDonnell Douglas YC-15 erfolgreich waren, ging keines der beiden Flugzeuge in Produktion.
