You're very welcome. I've just updated the drawing as I saw some errors after finding some photos of the aircraft before painting, so showing all panels. Looking forward to seeing a Polish C-295!

The maritime patrol variant (MPA) seems to come in different configurations, so I've drawn one of the Portuguese Air Force and Chilean Navy to show some of the differences.

EADS CASA C-295MPA "Persuader":

Standard C-295M Transport in Spanish Air Force service:

C-295 AEW&C Airbus Military Demonstrator (based on photos and articles, so may not be perfect):

Awesome 295s, IJ. That's one of my favorite MPA platforms.

Thanks! I've never actually seen one, so I'm hoping to have a look around one on Friday at Farnborough Airshow, I can't wait to see everything there

Have fun, I went 2 years ago with the school and I didn't regret it, Got to sit in a Eurofighter and see the Vulcan.

I have no idea why EADS is doing a rotating (or even fixed) dome instead of a Wedgetail-like planar array.

Because it was simpler and cheaper for them to do so, they said it themselves.

This camo pattern is a main type of camo for Polish CASA's or Kate as pilots call them. It is not navy pattern, that kind of bright blue is used by air force. Pretty stupid, but as all decisions made by politicians they need to be stupid, thats the law and rule. Air force for long time fight for new camo pattern, and they recive one. First Kate return some time ago from Spain with new camo, when I get some good pics I will make that one also. Big thanks indiajuliet for making C-295M in first place.
