First seen at Farnborough in 1984, soon after it had begun flying with an operational antenna, the AEW Defender has now been fully developed by Pilatus Britten-Norman, and is to begin a world­wide tour in January 1986. The Thorn-EMI Skymaster in the Defender is one of the most modern AEW radars flying, with dual capability for use over land and sea. Just visible (between the mainwheels) is the fairing over an APU on the starboard side of the fuselage; in production aircraft, the APU would be repositioned internally.
