    Aermacchi Projects

    Sorry for that mistake, but I got it from old magazine,but the correct from Wikipedia; MB.336 was single seat ground attack aircraft developed from MB.326,later re-named MB.326K. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aermacchi_MB-326

    Aermacchi Projects

    MB.328 and MB.329 were twin-turboprop business aircraft. The MB.328 had them on the wing while the MB.329 had them mounted on the aft fuselage. I know that there are drawings of these out there, either in a back issue of Aerofan or in a book covering Aermacchi aircraft.

    Leonardo M-346 Thread

    Also, to comment briefly on the external differences between M-346 and the Yak-130, the Yak-130 was certainly the starting point but Aermacchi did make substantive aerodynamic changes: https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/flight-test-alenia-aermacchi-m-346-one-stop-warrior-207881/ You...

    Re-equipping the Red Arrows . . .

    These sentiments were seen in Italy against the Frecce Tricolori team (that this year turned 60), anyway Italian Air Forces had already traded with Italian Government to replace the aged Aermacchi MB-339A with the brand new Leonardo T-345 in near future.

    ...the T-Bird II. Despite being bigger and faster than what the AF/USN said they wanted, it did meet most of the requirements without major redesign. One question was how the screeching Viper would meet the noise requirements. This was the intended solution, fitted to Aermacchi's MB339C...

    New Russian SAT SR-10 trainer

    Well, Yak-130 was raped by the Berkut and the SR-10 was born :D I agree that this is the death project. With the hell of a competitors like Yak-130, Aermacchi M346 or T-50 Golden Eagle, even the MAKO HEAT trainer, supported by the giant EADS doesn't have much chances to be realized.

    bristol-alfa romeo engine

    Dear Friends, I've been told that the engine in the pic is a De Havilland Ghost, licensed for production in Italy to a consortium of Fiat/Aermacchi/Alfa Romeo in the late forties. Assuming the above for true, this could explain the engine in the Alfa Romeo Portello factory in Milan. I still wait...

    Aermacchi Projects

    It was just a part in a major article about M346 in service and the TX proposal. In short it says that Aermacchi started in 1985 the development of an advanced trainer to prepare pilots for 4th gen fighters. They tried contacts with many govs until 1991, but no interest was shown for the...

    Aermacchi Projects

    By 1995 Aermacchi with Dassault and Daimler-Benz Aerospace was working on the TS-21 training system. This was a study for a next-generation integrated training system for NATO air forces. Part of the rationale was to reduce training costs./ Does anyone know any more details? Was this purely a...

    U.S. Navy VTXTS advanced jet trainer proposals

    Hard to keep NGT, VTX (officially VTXTS) and JPATS apart. The VTX bidders included an upgraded T-2 Buckeye from Rockwell, the Aermacchi MB399 (I think - it was also offered for JPATS), designs from General Dynamics, Grumman/Beech and Northrop/Vought and then the finalists: Lockheed with the...

    Alternative fighter for Argentine AF & Navy during Falklands war.

    The MB-339 was certainly a modern trainer for 1982 but it remained a trainer nonetheless. And sending trainers against the british fleet, MB-326 or MB-339, would be suicide. Crippa had huge balls and made it alive, but he was supposed to fly an armed reconnaissance mission, not an attack like a...

    Alternative fighter for Argentine AF & Navy during Falklands war.

    Nice picture ! I find what you're saying very interesting, but I think that in the absence of effective air cover, the losses from the EMB-326s would have been too significant.
