The (infamous) 10-00738 [AE543E] has just been showing on ADS-B (22.30UTC) at FL270 heading a bit South of East over Gila Bend, AZ in the general direction of Las Cruces, NM.

Rather inconveniently, it stopped plotting N of Tucson.

AE4C63 was down in my notes as 10-00737, yesterday it was on SBS as Army289.
11-00289 has been pictured at Tucson in feb-2015, it's construction number is unknown to me.
Could it be that 10-00737 has been re-serialed to 11-00289 somewhere between Feb-2013 and Feb-2015?
Last picture i can find of 10-00737 was in Feb-2013 at Lajes. Has anyone seen this afterwards?
Btw i,m still looking for a picture of 10-00738, anyone?

MC-12S-3 11-00287 EMARSS-V Ronin22 on ADS-B currently (1515Z/1015L 15Jun17) airborne south of Waco, TX. Appears to be flying circuits at L-3/Waco (KCNW). The 'Ronin' callsign seems to be associated with aircraft temporarily in use by L-3.

SD


EDIT:-rh226 is right, the 'Ronin' callsign is 15MIB. I have noticed several flights originating out of Fort Hood using this--most recently MC-12S-1 12-00280 EMARSS-G.

10-0728 AE4C5E FL-728 Active E/305MIB aug-18 using Intel callsigns.
10-0729 AE4C5F FL-729 was with B3-214AVN, flew KHGR> KGVT on 13aug18 as R00729, so for mods now.
10-0730 AE4C60 FL-730 was with B3-214AVN, then at KGVT for mods, flew KGVT>KHGR 23aug18. Is this a new MC12S-2 update?
10-0737 AE4C63 FL-737 active 224th MIB,aug-18, is Emarss M1 so MC-12S-2 by now. Latest scramble magazine doubts if this was ever serialed as 10-0737 at all, there are plenty of pictures on the internet, so was definelty 10-0737. Has it been re-serialed to 11-00289 for instance? last picture i can find of 10-0737 is of 2014, 11-00289 showed up the 1st time in jan-15 at Tuscon/AZ...
10-0738 AE4C64 FL-738 some discussion about this one, reported as 10-0738 at Redstone, but using Hexcode AE543E. So far no pictures found. c/n FL-738 shoud be MC-12S 11-00268.
10-0739 AE4C61 FL-739 Was with 224th MIB, l/n 13dec17 to KGVT, still there?
10-0742 AE4C62 FL-742 converted to MC-12S-2?, was with 224th MIB, deployed to Afghanistan/ Iraq as Elvis24 mar-18, still there. Pictures show it as 00742 all grey.

KGVT is home for L3, KHGR is for Sierra Nevada.
the unit unknowns are flown by a joint crew of Army and contractor pilots, as far as i can see they do not belong to a specific unit, they might report to an AEW however.
Most data is SBS/ livemode-s or ADSB exchange.
