Nomads to Thai Navy:
Australia will provide four Nomad Searchmaster aircraft to the Royal Thai Navy (RTN) as part of the Defence Co-operation program. The $7.5 million project also involves training RTN personnel and the provision of spares, ground support equipment and limited advisory assistance.
The aircraft will be fitted with surveillance equipment in Australia and be used to deal with smuggling, illegal entry, the protection of fishing rights and in search and rescue operations. The four aircraft will also assist in Thailand’s antipiracy campaign which is supported by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
