CN235 maritime Patrol Aircraft for Senegal Air Force

Recently noted at Bandung/Husein Sastranegara Internal Airport (Indonesia) is this first CN235-220MPA Maritime Patrol Aircraft for the Armée de l'Air du Senegal (Senegalese Air Force).

The aircraft, still with Indonesian test registration AX-2348 and construction number N069, is expected to take up the Senegalese serial 6W-TTD.

It seems that Senegal has ordered two MPAs with PT Dirgantara Indonesia (Indonesian Aerospace). Photos from an aircraft overview planning board of the AdlA du Senegal showed serials 6W-TTD and 6W-TTE.

Currently, Senegal has two transport versions of the CN235 in its inventory. Both tarnsporters, CN235-220AT 6W-TTB (c/n N015) and CN235-220M 6W-TTC (c/n N065) are both operated by the Escadre de Transport at Dakar/Yoff.
