NL EASP AIR is the Dutch service provider for special aerial mission support. EASP AIR is operating Maritime Patrol and ISR surveillance missions, SAR and support to Fire Fighting operations. Included is the provisioning of the cloud based, enhanced I-COP® C3-SA Command & Control Mission Tool.
EASP AIR missions are carried out with an own fleet of Long Endurance/Long Range DORNIER DO328-100 Special Mission Aircraft, each equipped with advanced sensors and (SATCOMMS) systems.
EASP AIR’s services are primarily focused to (supra)-national and governmental bodies, as well as to Civil / Military Authorities. Since 2017, the EU Commissions’ FRONTEX EU Border and Coast Guard Agency is one of EASP AIR’s main clients. Ever since, EASP AIR has been operating aerial surveillance support and SAR operations in Spain, Albania, Monte Negro, Italy, France, Greece, Malta and Belgium.

EASP AIR provides its customers with the most innovative and cost-efficient, enhanced Common Operational and Situational Picture. The C3/SA Command & Control component of its operations is enabled by the cloud-based I-COP® C3/SA Mission Tool. I-COP® C3/SA allows NL EASP AIR to operate in integrated operations, as well as in remote mission areas on an autonomous basis.
