The U-28A Draco may trace its roots to the civilian Pilatus PC-12, but on the battlefield, it transforms into one of the U.S. Air Force’s most versatile and vital intelligence platforms. Operated by Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC), the Draco is a quiet force multiplier — capable of deploying to remote airstrips, gathering critical intelligence, conducting surveillance, and providing real-time support to special operations missions. Beneath its sleek and understated exterior lies a powerful sensor suite, enabling it to track, observe, and coordinate with precision in environments where larger aircraft can’t go. Agile, stealthy, and relentless, the U-28A Draco turns the seemingly ordinary into an extraordinary weapon for America’s most elite warfighters.
