Bombardier Defense is proud to announce the delivery of a ninth Bombardier Global aircraft to the United States Air Force. The delivery, which was celebrated at Hanscom Air Force Base earlier this month, is the latest in a long-standing and highly successful partnership between the USAF and Bombardier Defense.
The fleet of BACN aircraft, which are known in the Air Force as E-11A and often referred to as “Wi-Fi in the sky”, are a specialized communications platform that enables enhanced situational awareness and interoperability acting as high-altitude communications gateways. The Bombardier Global fleet serving the USAF has been performing critical communications missions around the world for close to two decades, serving to bridge voice and tactical data between air and land forces, while surmounting obstacles such as mountains, rough terrain or distance.
“At Bombardier Defense, we are honored to see our reliable, high-performing Global aircraft serve the United States Air Force in critical missions worldwide through the BACN program,” said Jean-Christophe Gallagher, Executive Vice President, Aircraft Sales and Bombardier Defense. “We are grateful for the longstanding trust of the U.S. Air Force, and we look forward to continuing to support the operational needs of the United States.
