Aircraft program
Low wing single turbofan advanced trainer and light combat aircraft. Includes two seat T1 variant, T2 (with wet wings) and L-39NG variant. Also multirole fighter variant F/A-259 Striker.
The aircraft as engineered: what it is built from, the systems it flies with, and its configuration — each box a theme.
Technical reference compiled with AI research; a value appears only where two independent research passes and a web fact-check agree. Gaps are deliberate.
