Bombardier’s Global Express XRS Aircraft gets green light from US Air Force
Bombardier Aerospace released that its Global Express XRS (BD-700-1A10) aircraft was granted the new military designation E-11A from the United States Air Force. The Global Express XRS (BD-700-1A10) aircraft will be used as an overhead communications-relay platform in Southwest Asia. The aircraft carries Northrop Grumman’s Battlefield Airborne Communications Node, or BACN, which allows disparate battlefield communications systems to share data.
