Default T-6A Texan II

I am in dire need of a set of plans for a Raytheon-Beech T-6 Texan II. I have been told that a Piltaus PC9 is the same aircraft but it is not, and the plans for that aircraft will not work. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. I have included a photo of each aircraft to illustrate how they are not the same, though I do not wish to debate it. Thanks in advance for any help!!

Like you, I thought it was the PC9 as well? It's not? Did Beech make design changes to fit the USAF's needs?

From what I can gather from rapidly scouring the Internet, it looks like Pilarus is a Swiss company that originally designed the PC9, then Raytheon decided to make a similar US trainer and based the T-6 II on the PC9. Raytheon pays royalties to Pilarus for the design. I have no idea how Beech is involved, other than that I think the original T-6 was made by Beech. I am sure someone will correct me on my facts however. Like I said, I really need plans, or even just a three view of the T-6.

Hi,

Did you check the Pilatus PC9 Mk II, here i quote "Produced by Raytheon Aircraft, the T-6A Texan II is a military trainer version of Raytheon's Beech/Pilatus PC-9 Mk II."
