Texas-Based Company Boosts Performance For Surveillance Missions
Texas-based Blackhawk has delivered the first of two upgraded Cessna Grand Caravans for the Colombian National Police, boosting performance for surveillance and special operations missions. The upgrade, managed through Blackhawk’s Vy Engine+ programme, replaces the stock engine with a newer variant, improving time to climb and take-off distance. Colombia uses the Grand Caravans for monitoring strategic targets and transporting special forces in jungle environments. This development was first reported by FlightGlobal.
