The two ATR-72 Maritime Patrol Aircraft (MPA) being converted from existing fleet will have an AeroMission mission management system, along with the Leonardo Seaspray 7300E AESA radar, Elettronica ESM suite, Star SAFIRE III EO/IR turret and lightweight torpedo for anti-submarine warfare (ASW) capability.

In addition, the ATR-72 MPAs are also configured with a self-protection suite providing defensibility to infrared, radar and laser-guided munitions. It also has passive electronic intelligence (ELINT) capabilities.

Don't know how they do it, but they are doing it right. Combat helicopters, corvettes, MPAs, AIP subs, AWACS, anything we fail to get, they get it done. :frown:

Not at all, it actually is making then far stronger to be free from the US burden, that limited them. Why would you want old US MPAs and combat helicopters, when you have latest European, Turkish and Chinese stuff on offer?
