Has that thing got weapons slung under the wings? Those look like missiles.

The Coast Guard does have some Falcon 20s (as somebody posted upthread) fitted for SAR and drug interdiction, but they’re unarmed, and I can’t find any other information indicating the Dassault Falcon is in service with any other branch of the US military. Now why would a Coast Guard surveillance aircraft be in Turkey hauling “senior generals” to Trashcanistan? This doesn’t pass the BS test.

Latest word I'm getting is that it wasn't a US plane after all, it was Hungarian, no US personnel on board.
