Textron Aviation is today announcing that its new military multi-engine training aircraft will be on display at the Farnborough International Airshow (FIA) for the first time, marking its debut in Europe.

The aircraft builds upon the Beechcraft King Air 260.

It features factory options for TACAN (Air to Air), angle of attack (AOA), V/UHF radio, digital audio system, engine trend monitoring, condition-based maintenance plus, observer/jump seat, passenger mission seats, and full-face oxygen masks.

Textron Aviation will feature the missionized King Air 260 aircraft at the static display from July 22-26 at Farnborough Airport.
