106sq actually operates all 3 GASU aircraft (so that means their 2 helicopters (EC135T1/EC135T2) operate under the fixed wing chain of command.) Only the EC135 are civil maintained, while all GASU aircraft are piloted by Air Corps personnel, who are answerable to the Air Corps chain of command as opposed to the Police's (An Garda Siochana.)

The PC-9M is used for training pilots at Baldonnel. Here is a pair of them giving a demo at the RIAT.

(Baldonnel, April 2022, Ian French)

The IAC operates two CN235s which will be replaced by four C295 aircraft in the future.

(Rotterdam-The Hague, June 2021, Pieter Bes)

Like more and more countries in Europe, the Irish Air Corps also operates the EC135.
