The twin engine C295 turboprop multirole transport aircraft is designed for maritime patrol and surveillance missions, medical evacuation, training and humanitarian operations.

The short take-off and landing (STOL) and rough-field capabilities of the aircraft will help the GAF to enter previously inaccessible West African sub-regions.

Delivery of the second aircraft is scheduled for early next year.
