Diamond DA62 And Air Bear Tactical Tour USA Summer 2022
This summer, Diamond and Air Bear Tactical Aircraft will be joining forces to tour the United States this summer, through to the end of August or Early September 2022.
This tour will mark the inaugural flight of the Diamond DA62 MPP in the United States, and presents an opportunity to showcase its “special mission aircraft” capabilities, and hopefully capture the attention of the law enforcement division. Diamond Aircraft’s partnership with Air Bear Tactical is intended to capitalize on the “mission ready airborne law enforcement solutions, custom designed for specific agency mission requirements” offered by Air Bear Tactical.
Markus Fischer, Director Special Mission Aircraft stated that they have “put a lot of effort into this demo as it is so important to show the airplane and its capabilities in the field”, going further to state that “we expect a big boost to the US market” and that they’re looking forward to “receiving the first feedback from US pilots and operators to further improve our DA62 MPP capabilities.”
The demo aircraft is expected to be configured with some standard mission equipment familiar to airborne law enforcement operators; a TC-300 electro-optical/infrared sensor, HDX-1100 line of-sight-downlink for broadband communication, Makito X4 video encoder, and AIMS-ISR mission control software. In this solution, Diamond Aircraft seeks to provide a turnkey solution with a single point of contact, that is cost efficient, and has the necessary support for long-term operations.
