Self Defense For India’s Legacy’s
The Indian Air Force takes delivery of five Embraer Legacy corporate jets this year. These are the first of the type to be fitted with self-defense systems, incorporating a missile radar warning system and chaff and flare dispensers.
One of the Legacys will be used to transport members of the Indian Cabinet, while the others will be used by India’s border security forces and senior military officers. First delivery is scheduled for this month. The jets will take over border control duties from ageing Avro 748 turboprops. —Mike Vines
