Project Liberty is acquiring 37 Hawker Beechcraft C-37 King Air 350/ERs equipped with MX-15 camera turret balls.

The aircraft are part of a rising trend of dispatching manned aircraft to augment the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) performing the persistent intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) mission. The army has already deployed the C-23 Constant Hawk and the marines are operating the manned Angel Fire system in Iraq.
