Intended for border patrol and surveillance, the Iomax USA Archangel is an armed, sensor-equipped, two-seat version of the Thrush S2R-660 agricultural aircraft.
North Carolina-based Iomax began deliveries of 24 aircraft to the United Arab Emirates in June.
The UAE’s Special Operations Command previously operated 24 armed Air Tractor AT-802s for border patrol.
