Hawker Pacific, a Jet Aviation Company, has successfully delivered its final mission-focused Beechcraft King Air 350 to the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF). The new multi-engine KA350 aircraft will begin service with a focus on new aircrew training. Accepting the aircraft on behalf of the New Zealand Government was the Hon. Ron Mark, Minister of Defence.
Under a ten-year agreement with the NZDF, Hawker Pacific is responsible for acquisition, modification and delivery of four multi-functioned, mission-focused King Air 350 (KA350) aircraft. It is also charged with delivering transport and training systems through real in-flight and virtual methods, and supporting these with a ground base training system, including engineering and logistics support, for use by the Royal New Zealand Air Force (RNZAF) at Base Ohakea.
