The U-28A Draco is a specialized military variant of the Swiss-built Pilatus PC-12, a versatile single-engine turboprop aircraft known for its reliability, performance, and ability to operate from short or unimproved airstrips. Operated by the U.S. Air Force's Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC), the U-28A was introduced in the early 2000s to provide tactical intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) in support of special operations missions around the globe. Its adaptability, long endurance, and advanced communications suite made it an invaluable asset in austere environments, often flying under the radar—both literally and figuratively.
Though unassuming in appearance, the U-28A earned a reputation as a quiet workhorse, gathering critical real-time intelligence in hostile and remote areas. Its ability to rapidly deploy, loiter for extended periods, and operate independently made it a key component in post-9/11 irregular warfare, especially in operations requiring a low profile and flexibility beyond traditional ISR platforms. While the airframe was based on a civilian design, its mission-specific modifications and combat-tested legacy cement its place as a unique and respected platform in military aviation.
