Bombardier Global 6500
Bombardier’s ultra-long-range Global 6500 has been selected for a variety of special-mission applications by several countries.

Bombardier received an order for three Global 6500s that will be used in maritime surveillance missions for the Australian Border Force. National security service provider Metrea will operate the aircraft on behalf of the Australian law enforcement agency.

The order announced today marks the introduction of the Global platform in Australia in a special mission configuration, the Montreal-based aircraft manufacturer noted. Bombardier Challengers and Learjets are already operated for search-and-rescue and medical missions in the region.
