Cessna 208 Caravan 12-01276 is the latest to join the US Army's fleet of nonstandard special operations aircraft. The aircraft arrived at RAF Mildenhall, Suffolk, from Wick in Scotland on August 27, 2012, and is seen departing for Stuttgart in Germany two days later. The aircraft's operating unit is unknown, although it may be associated with the 427th Special Operations Squadron (SOS) based at Pope Army Air Field, North Carolina, assigned to Air Force Special Operations Command. The 427th SOS is believed to already operate a pair of Cessna 208B Grand Caravans acquired in 2005.

Despite the enthusiasm for VLJs, turboprop aircraft still have an important role with numerous air taxi companies. In this case, by being fitted with floats they are able to operate from locations that a jet could not.
