Since 1973, the RCA has replaced its older, original airliners with newer models from the Ahuriri Aerospace R510 family, largely R511LRs. The opening of an Ahuriri plant in Yisrael has accelerated the use of the aircraft, as the company's acquisitions of new aircraft is earmarked to come from the domestically-located production facility.
However, in the early 1990s, the RCA switched to purchasing newer R513 models, which had several more advanced technical upgrades and better fuel efficiencies as well as the benefit of being produced in Ahuriri's Yisraeli plant. They would also go on to employ the Ahuriri Aerospace R520 as the launch customer for the aircraft.
As of 2021, dozens of R511 aircraft commissioned in the 1970s and early 1980s have been replaced by the R513 models.
