>Beechcraft MC-12 Liberty
Technology:
Yes, the MC-12W is a militarized version of the Hawker Beechcraft Super King Air 350ER. Instead of tourists though, these aircraft pack a complete data collection, processing, analysis and dissemination system. Liberty ISR planes are equipped with a variety of classified and ultra-advanced radar and SIGNIT sensors, as well as infrared or full color hi-definition video cameras. Almost the same intelligence gathering capabilities of a Predator drone and J-STAR surveillance aircraft, but rolled into one small and relatively cheap airframe.
Just as valuable, the MC-12 is armed with a high-strength infrared pointer, allowing them to “mark” an individual person or object for ground troops to engage or avoid. All of which is, of course, invisible to any enemy not wearing night vision goggles. Most aircraft also have an onboard laser designator to directly guide-in precision strike munitions.
