Textron AirLand, LLC, a joint venture between Textron Inc. and AirLand Enterprises, LLC, announced that its Scorpion aircraft had its first flight outside US when it flew to Farnborough from the McConnell Air Force Base in Kansas.

The aircraft’s first flight outside the US covered about 4,700 nautical miles from Wichita to RAF Fairford-Gloucestershire, 117 kilometres outside of London. Scorpion participated in the Royal International Air Tattoo from July 11 to 13, immediately followed by Farnborough International Air Show from July 14 to 20.

Scorpion may be configured to accommodate various infrared air-to-air missiles and wing-mounted gun pods. The aircraft will be on display outside the Textron Chalet, alongside Textron Aviation’s Beechcraft AT-6 light attack turbo prop, T-6 training platform, King Air 350ER—with the Cessna Grand Caravan EX joining the lineup at Farnborough.
