Fokker F27 Maritime M-2 seen in its half open hangar at Hato, Curacao, Dutch Caribbean. Two of these aircraft were assigned to the Dutch Naval Command in the Caribbean and operated by 336 squadron. In the late 90s, both were retired and replaced by a permanent Royal Netherlands Navy P-3C presence at Hato. On the fin it carries, barely visible, the badge of 336 Sqn, on the nose the crest of CZMCARIB - Commandement der Zeemacht in het Caribisch Gebied.
