‘Inkwazi’ (Zulu for fish eagle) — South Africa’s presidential Boeing 737 BBJ, flown by 21 Squadron of the South African Air Force under the callsign ‘LMG1’ since 2002 and fitted out by Jet Aviation of Basel. It carries the President and entourage, though chronic engine defects grounded it in mid-2025, repeatedly forcing the head of state onto chartered or borrowed jets.
