It was certainly done in the past in the UK, usually as a high profile method of enforcing notorious speed sites. I recall the Met carrying a battery powered Vascar system in the back of the old 222's in the early 90's.

Certainly these days it is considered an unsuitable use for a Police Air Ops resource.
