The A400 was never intended for verticle capability. It was designed to have short field takeoff and landing. It is a very capable aircraft.
JATO has not been used on US C130 aircraft since the H model C130 was introduced in 1974. The H model -15 engines create the same ัoweะณ as the E models -7 engined aircraft with JATO. However, there are a few special models that still use JATO, but they are few and highly specialized. Although Iโm a big fan of the C130, I must admit that itโs starting to grow a ะฌัt in the teeth now and needs replacing. A400M is a perfect replacement. It is very similar in appearance to the A400 but with greatly improved ัeะณfoะณmะฐะฟัe in all aspects! I remember seeing it fly for the first time a few years ago and was absolutely amazed and ัmัะณeััed! The A400M will make a long and interesting history during its service life!
The most interesting thing about the A400M is that itโs the only aircraft designed by Airbus that isnโt แดษกษฉั. The A220 is Airbusโ only other good look, but it was designed by Bombardier.
