If you can afford to get the Z100-400 then I would suggest, as it is an S line lens and has a faster apert...

Re: Airtanker operations
If MOD trooping flights are using chartered airlines it is possible that Airtanker are covering the cost. In this crazy world probably cheaper to use the charter than run their own A330's If MOD has the requirment outside of the contracted AirTanker aircraft, then MOD pay for the additional charters.
