To further modernize its air fleet, the Malian Air Force would soon receive more aerial platforms. The soon to be delivered aircraft includes Boeing C296W transport aircraft. The Malian Air Force (FAMa) would use the new C295W to supplement the one previously delivered in order to boost it’s logistical ability.
