Indian coast guard dornier aircraft.
... and made in India.......................................................................................Very beautiful ..
Radar for sea scanning.... Check other marine aircraft (P8I etc), they have similar structures to house it too.What is this black Structure below the fuselage of the Aircraft? Is it some sort of sensor or Radar or something?

Could you point out to such a structure on the P8I? Because I have just checked the pictures of these Aircrafts and have found no sort of structure like the one which is below the Dornier.Radar for sea scanning.... Check other marine aircraft (P8I etc), they have similar structures to house it too.
P8I uses nose mounted radar, better to look in the I-star hump on the top. It's similar radar for SAR imaging (istar uses underbelly hump for EO pods)Indian Coast guard Operates around 36 Dornier Aircrafts though. Seems to be pretty good for Export to small countries like Vietnam, Phillipines etc.

Yes indeed this is a very good looking Aircraft. This is actually my favourite colour scheme of the Dornier 228. I like the blue White colour combination, looks pretty beautiful Atleast to me!Very beautiful ..

Yes I got it. The ELM-2022 is an Airborne Maritime Patrol Radar which work in X-band frequency (feel free to correct me if I am wrong anywhere)
