| Converted to a RC-26B: C-26B modified with electronic surveillance equipment for drug interdiction missions (the USAF operates 11 within the Air National Guard). The RC-26B aircraft were originally configured with a belly pod containing a sensor turret and a data recorder. Recently, this pod has been removed and a sensor turret has been added to the belly of the aircraft. Some of the RC-26Bs were operated for a time with civil registrations. | |
