I’m told by a friend operating a police 169 that the aft mounted searchlight is good for surveillance work when linked to the Wescam, but has no value for a high/low recce for off airfield landings due to the software stops and aircraft shadowing preventing the beam from pointing where you need it. I can put you in touch if you need more information.
