Iraq to be equipped with another Beechcraft King Air 350ER-ISR aircraft

The US DoD announced today it has awarded Beechcraft Defense a $27,048,576 contract for purchase of one King Air 350 extended range aircraft modified with intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capability; one Scorpion ground station and one complete spare Scorpion ground station for the Iraqi armed Forces. Work is expected to be complete by March 23, 2017.

​

Iraqi Armed Forces' King Air 350ER-ISR aircraft​

The Iraqi Air Force already operates six King Air 350ER-ISR aircraft that have been modified into intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) platforms and one King Air 350 light transport aircraft.​

The 350ER-ISRs (MC-12Ws, in USAF parlance) have a in-class conversion that gives them 360 degree radar surveillance capability, but the radar can also be removed without impairing the plane’s commercial value. The integrated sensor suite includes an MX-15 surveillance turret with long-range cameras and infrared to detect, track, classify and identify surface contacts.

These capabilities can also be turned to limited maritime patrol, via long-range ship detection and imaging, and identification of small ocean targets in high sea states.​
