If visit paid by ATR then well and good, otherwise its waste of money as its not our product.

First time seeing a ATR with external armament.

Two hardpoints for either anti ship missiles or torpedos. 11hr endurance.

Less capable than the P-3C but should be a cheaper platform perhaps.

Its a paid-for visit! Most probably the supplier have requested PN for the aircraft to exhibit the subsystems. May even have paid PN some money for this!

As for Blk-III, will take four to five years before we start seeing that in airshows. May be a couple more!

RAS Special Mission Aircraft Division displays an ATR 72 Maritime Patrol Aircraft at Paris Air Show 2019 (link: Click here)

RAS and Aerodata showcasing the cost-efficient special mission aircraft ATR 72 in a Maritime patrol aircraft configuration. The aircraft was modified for the Pakistan Navy.

Rheinland Air Service (RAS) is exhibiting the MPA Sea Eagle during the Paris Air Show, June 17–23, 2019 in Le Bourget, France. This is the second special mission aircraft conversion for the Pakistan Navy made by RAS special mission aircraft division. The first modified ATR72 series was handed over to the Pakistan Navy by the Mönchengladbach-based company Rheinland Air Service (RAS) mid-2018.

In cooperation with the Braunschweig-based company Aerodata, RAS converted the former passenger aircraft into a state-of-the-art multiple role maritime patrol aircraft with anti-submarine warfare capabilities. "We are proud to be one of the few companies worldwide to have converted already two turboprop passenger aircraft into sea surveillance aircraft," says RAS Managing Director Walter Lange.

Within one year, the turboprop aircraft was equipped with state-of-the-art mission systems such as Aerodata's Mission Management System "AeroMission", an AESA Surveillance Radar System, two weapon hard points, a Sonobuoy Launching System, a broadband Satcom System and an Electronic Support Measures Systems as well as a high-resolution Electro-optical and Infrared System.

“With its long endurance and low operating costs, along with excellent parts and maintenance availability, the ATR 72 series was the ideal platform to fulfill our client’s most demanding operational needs for maritime patrol and anti-submarine warfare missions,” states Nikolaos Mavrikis, Director of the Special Mission Aircraft Division at RAS.

RAS special mission aircraft division is specialized to convert and customize aircraft for any type of business, humanitarian or governmental mission.
