Are there other changes? Is the airframe the same? I bet with all that power that thing is an elevator.
Quite a bit different airframe, no commonality with the Caribou. Also heavier, MGTOW of 49,000 lbs. GE T-56 (?) 3300 shp. Pilots manual refers to any location you can drive a jeep at 40 mph you can land a Buffalo there! Quite a machine.

Keeping with the Dehavilland theme here is another! Canadians on Pelican will recognize the livery and owner as Max Ward of Wardair.
