The Persuader, a versatile transport aircraft, was a mainstay of the Irish Air Corps' fleet during this period. With its distinctive design and bold markings, this aircraft stands as a testament to the Corps' commitment to aviation and transportation capabilities. The Persuader, a mode of transport aircraft manufactured by the Spanish company CASA, was renowned for its versatility and durability. It was capable of performing various roles, including transport, maritime patrol, and surveillance missions. This particular aircraft, 253, was assigned to 101 Squadron, which was part of the No. 1 Operating Wing of the Irish Air Corps. The photograph captures the Persuader in its element, with the Irish flag proudly displayed on its fuselage. The crew, dressed in their flight gear, are seen preparing for a mission, adding a sense of urgency and importance to the scene. The background shows the tarmac and hangars of the Irish Air Corps base, further emphasizing the aircraft's role in the Corps' aviation operations. This photograph, from The Tony Lovelock Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the Irish Air Corps' history and the vital role that the CASA 235-100MPA Persuader played in its transportation and operational capabilities during the mid-1990s.
