Aircraft 4570, and tangentially also all other C-295
Summary of Changes
The Dragon Shield system manufactured my Lockheed Martin amd installed on the C-295M named CC-1 is more than just ESM.
Exactly what is highly classified, but what is known from open sources is that it can handle SIGINT, ELINT, COMINT and IMINT through an EO/IR pod under the fuselage, and follow more than 100 different elecromagnetic sources at the same time.
Also, all C-295M are equipped with RWR, MAWS, LWR and chaff/flares dispensers. So add the following to Aircraft #2948, #3232, #3233, #3235, #3236, #3237, #3238, #3868, #3942, #4569, #5071, #5382, #5437, #5549, #5550, #5666, #5735, #5948, #6174, :
