On May 4, 2022, the Department of National Defence announced delays in the Fixed-Wing Search and Rescue (SAR) project. The CC295 Kingfisher fleet of aircraft, that will eventually replace existing SAR aircraft, still require significant work, tests, and trials before entering into Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) service. As a result, Initial Operational Capability (IOC) has been delayed from 2022 to 2025-2026.
The new fleet of modern aircraft is equipped with technologically advanced systems and will be able to perform in Canada’s harsh search and rescue environment; one of the most challenging and diverse landscapes in the world.
Note: All questions related to Initial and Full Operational Capabilities, capability gap, security, interoperability requirements and costs should be answered by the Minister of National Defence
