AMX-T
Embraer and Alenia have pooled their resources to develop and build the new AMX-T, a two-seat, single-engine, high-performance subsonic attack jet for advanced and fighter lead-in training. The aircraft retains the superb operational capabilities of the single-seat AMX attack jet and provides the required performance to make pilots acquainted with the demands of modern combat scenarios. Its avionics suite features latest-generation technology and the most advanced man-machine interface on the market.
The AMX-T is a twin seater, high performance transonic turbofan jet, specifically developed for Advanced and Fighter Lead-In Training. It maintains the operational characteristics of the AMX - Ground Attack Fighter - already in operation with the Brazilian (FAB) and Italian (AMI) Air Forces. It is a high subsonic trainer with a low level dash speed in excess of 500 kt in any armed configuration. The AMX-T was selected by the Venezuelan Air Force (FAV) to replace the old and venerable T-2A Buckeyes in the advanced training phase. Baseline commonality between the AMX-T and the Super Tucano in terms of electronics, computers, and cockpit concepts allows for a smooth transition between aircraft and reduces training costs for both pilots and maintenance technicians
