For research purposes the aircraft in version of the air platform enables the remote multi-spectral sensing of the Earth surface in various electromagnetic bands with coverage up to 120 km.
The aircraft carried out the planet atmosphere researches with flight radius 1500-1700 km:

in May 1994- from Berlin;


since December 1996 till January 1997 - from Rovaniemi (Finland), from where the aircraft flew up to New Land, to the West almost up to Greenland;


since February till March 1999 the aircraft participated in investigation of atmosphere anomalies over the Indian Ocean flying from Victoria aerodrome , from the Seychelles;
