C-26
Fairchild's Metro twin-turboprop regional aircraft is in service with the US Air National Guard, which operates 13 C-26As (Metro IIIs) and 37 C-26Bs (Metro 23s) in a variety of roles. Ten aircraft have been modified to carry an underfuselage surveillance pod.
C101 Aviojet
A C101CC light-attack version of the Aviojet trainer has been delivered to Jordan and assembled under licence by Enaer in Chile (as the A-36 Halcon). The C101CC has an uprated 20kN AlliedSignal TFE731-5 turbofan. Weapons include underfuselage 30mm cannon pods, underwing rockets and gun pods, bombs and missiles. Jordan's 16 C101CCs have radar-warning receivers and chaff/flare dispensers. No orders have been announced for the C101DD training and attack version.
C212 Aviocar
The standard production version of the Aviocar twin-turboprop utility transport is the Series 300, which has an increased maximum take-off weight of 8,000kg for the C212M military variant, greater range and payload and structural modifications, including a redesigned nose and wingtips. The C212M can carry two 500 litre fuel tanks on underwing hardpoints. Special-mission Aviocars offered include a maritime-patrol model, the Patrullero, with nose-mounted APS-128 search radar.

THE C295 turboprop utility transport is under development. First delivery is due in 2000.
