The AR-15 Nghê is a four-engined, turboprop anti-submarine and maritime surveillance aircraft used by the Baltanian Baltanian Naval Air Force and 
Pavulturilori Navy. It was built by Banyan Aircraft Corporation in Partnership with the Pavulturilori National Aviation Bureau and features WJ-6C turboprops with 6-blade each.
The first two prototypes were first seen at the BAC factory airfield in November 2011 and mass production is believed to have begun in 2015. It features a completely pressurised cabin, a bulbous radome which house a search radar and a distinctive magnetic anomaly detector (MAD). An additional electro-optical turret housing a forward-looking infrared (FLIR) camera, CCD/TV camera and laser rangefinder is fitted underneath the forward fuselage. It also has four opening to deploy sonobuoys (SQ-4 and SQ-5) and cargo bay to carry anti-submarine grenades and torpedoes.
