Future Russian Army Could Deploy Anywhere In The World – In 7 Hours by mustymatic(m): 1:39pm On Mar 20, 2015
In the future, a fleet of heavy transport aircraft will reportedly be capable of moving a strategic unit of 400 Armata tanks, with ammunition, to anywhere in the world. And probably at hypersonic speed, enabling Russia to mount a global military response.
According to a new design specification from the
Military-Industrial Commission in Moscow, a
transport aircraft, dubbed PAK TA, will fly at
supersonic speeds (up to 2,000 km/h) and will
boast an impressively high payload of up to 200
tons. It will also have a range of at least 7,000
kilometers.
The PAK TA program envisages 80 new cargo
aircraft to be built by 2024. This means in a
decade Russia’s Central Command will be able to
place a battle-ready armored army anywhere,
Expert Online reports, citing a source in the
military who attended the closed meeting.
One of the main tasks of the new PAK TA is to
transport Armata heavy missile tanks and other
military hardware on the same platform, such as
enhanced self-propelled artillery weapons
systems, anti-aircraft missile complexes, tactical
missile carriers, multiple launch missile systems,
and anti-tank missile fighting vehicles.
The PAK TA freighters will be multilevel, with
automated cargo loading and have the capability
to airdrop hardware and personnel on any terrain.

A fleet of several dozen PAK TA air freighters will
be able to lift 400 Armata heavy tanks, or 900
light armored vehicles, such as Sprut-SD airborne
amphibious self-propelled tank destroyers

If I am not mistaken, I think the technology behind this is either scramjet or hypersonic scramjet. . .
