A UNIQUELY CAPABLE & FLEXIBLE SURVEILLANCE PLATFORM With over 1,100 aircraft in the field, many people may think of the PC-12 NG as a business aircraft. What most people do not realize is that the “executive” aircraft sitting on the ramp may actually be carrying some of the most sophisticated surveillance and communication equipment in the air today. Invisible to the untrained eye, yet extremely capable on station, the Pilatus PC-12 NG has been adopted by insiders as the “go-to platform” for surveillance missions in some of the most harsh environments around the globe. With its pressurized cabin and high-altitude ceiling, the PC-12 NG can standoff at distances the subjects under surveillance cannot detect. The PC-12 NG’s powerful, yet fuel-efficient Pratt & Whitney PT6A-67P turboprop engine enables it to stay on station for over 8 hours with standard fuel capacity. Pilatus has extensive experience providing customized surveillance solutions for PC-12 operators. Featuring a retractable lift in the tailcone which accommodates many popular EO/IR sensors, the PC-12 NG Spectre can be configured with a multitude of option- al workstations and communications equipment. Pilatus also has strong working relationships with prime systems integrators to design highly modified solutions unique to each customer’s mission requirements. The PC-12 NG Spectre is in operation with a multitude of agencies around the world tasked with the difficult job of protecting citizens and military personnel. Find out what they know, and learn why they trust the PC-12 NG Spectre to get the job done.
INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE & RECONAISSANCE (ISR) Configured with the Spectre ISR package, the large-volume PC-12 NG houses a covert sensor, deployable in flight for a 360- degree view controlled through a manned cabin console. Combine real-time imaging and ground communication with long loiter capability and high dash speeds. The result is the most flexible and cost-effective ISR platform in the air. BORDER SURVEILLANCE With the PC-12 NG’s outstanding fuel efficiency, range, and cabin size, it is the perfect platform for lengthy surveillance missions along far-reaching borders. Agencies tasked with the difficult mission of protecting long stretches of unguarded borders have found the PC-12 NG uniquely capable of expanding their reach without blowing their budgets. DRUG ENFORCEMENT Get a leg up on smugglers with some tricks of your own. The PC-12 NG Spectre is the ace up your sleeve for patrols over land and sea. Protect your undercovers by knowing if suspects are carrying weapons, how many perpetrators there may be and where they are moving. Use the infrared sensor to observe and protect day and night. The deployable EO/IR sensor provides the ability to be a stealthy observer of unlawful activity. The sensor operator console allows full control of the tailcone mounted EO/IR sensor. Sensor deployment may also be controlled by the pilot. Sensor imagery can be displayed on the cockpit MFDs for complete crew coordination. Trailing link landing gear and a very short landing distance allow the PC-12 NG to operate on remote and unimproved airstrips. The lift mechanism for the sensor is completely integrated into the tailcone of the PC-12 NG. PC-12 NG SPECTRE | 04
