So, isn't the tucano both a fighter and trainer as well?
What's the issue here you don't like the T-50????
I understand the F-16 heritage, but they are very different in both good and bad aspects.
This is not a dumbed down Viper, the F-2 is.

Pretty cool looking airplane, but not a lot of punch. Lots of long straight runs to build energy and no vertical component to the display...

Yes, you can tell it is a modified F16 sequence, with limited vertical. Pretty much like flying an Avonds F16 on a RAM 500.
But I'd love to see a T38 fly like that.

About the Tucano, is not a fighter.. but a good airplane that can do many things and also shoot down a airplane out of the sky once or twice.

T-38's are no slouch on takeoff guys. I have seen more than a few push it straight up at the end of a 10,000 foot runway more than once. Not sure what altitude they can go to but they push it out of sight.

What did I miss in the video? There was nothing in that routine that would get a round of applause from me. Wish I could find a video of Bob Hoover doing his routine in a commercial business jet; T-39 Saberliner. What he could do with that thing was amazing.
