A trainer with afterburner? sure, ok.

RE: can your trainer do this?
I didn't know it, but it looks like it will do 800 kts. Would give an F35 a run for the money.
T38 is AB also, but still underpowered. |
RE: can your trainer do this?
Right What Enrique said + it is a tweeked F-16 Scotty

RE: can your trainer do this?
Is a long story... this plane is a reminder that politics try to label things that aren´t! ;)

RE: can your trainer do this?
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...

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. |

Bob 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. ;) |

Not knocking the airplane. Just lets get real. The only thing about it that is trainer is that it has two seats. Mach 1.5 and a 14k payload- As John Lovits would say" Yeah its a trainer - Thats it." Scotty

RE: can your trainer do this?
Ok I see your points now. I'm sure there were other intentions in the design, such as exports.

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.

I don't know ow it compares, but the F-20 Tigershark goes from brake release to 65,000ft in 90 seconds.... That will pin you back !!

RE: can your trainer do this?
same engine, if my memory doesn´t fail me...
|
RE: can your trainer do this?
Haters! :DWe are all just jealous we either are:
1. Not there to take in the sights in person or 2. Not the one flying the thing! |
RE: can your trainer do this?
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.

Like pulling 9Gs without having to xray the crap out of it afterwards
