ℹ️ ➖➖➖ The CASA/IPTN CN-235 is a medium-range twin-engined transport aircraft that was jointly developed by Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA (CASA) of Spain and Indonesian manufacturer IPTN, as a regional airliner and military transport. Its primary military roles include maritime patrol, surveillance, and air transport. The project was a joint venture between Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA (CASA) and Indonesian Aerospace (PT. Dirgantara Indonesia), formerly known as IPTN, which formed Airtech International to manage the programme. The partnership applied only to the Series 10 and Series 100/110, with later versions being developed independently. Over 230 of all versions of CN-235 are in service and have accumulated more than 500,000 flight hours.
📑 ➖➖➖ Airbus Military has handed over a CN235 medium transport aircraft to the Cameroon Air Force, making the country the sixteenth sub-Saharan operator of the aircraft. One CN235 aircraft was ordered by the air force for modernisation of its transport fleet for utility operations in June 2012. Combat-proven in hot, dusty and humid conditions and on unprepared runways, the aircraft was selected due to its versatility, low maintenance, efficiency and operating costs for operation in the challenging conditions found in the African region.
