One of two C295MWs that the Czech Air Force ordered, both of which had been delivered by late July 2021. The M in the subtype stands for modernized, and it is rather obvious from the image what the W stands for: winglets. The four C295s that were already on strength will be updated to the same standard. They are operated from 24th Transport Base (24.Základna Dopravního Letectva) Kbely, of which the emblem is on the nose, by the 242.tsl (transport and special squadron).
