Canadian Fighter Pilot Training Company To Buy FA-50 Light Combat Jets
Citat:ITPS President Giorgio Clementi told The War Zone that his company plans to buy between eight and 12 examples of the South Korean FA-50 for the advanced training role. Like the Albatross, they will be based in Canada. As well as its five L-39Cs, the company also owns three Aero L-29 Delfins and two Hawker Hunters, all of which would potentially be superseded by the far more capable KA-50s.
“The KAI FA-50 is a great aircraft!” Clementi had said in an earlier company press release. “The aircraft’s performance, flying qualities, and mission capabilities make it the ideal platform for tactical and adversary training missions and a great fit for ITPS to replace our L-39 fleet. A new aircraft supported by the manufacturer and with the associated engineering and logistical support ensures reliable and cost-effective operations into the future.”
Citat:“The KAI T-50 is known to me and we have had a good relationship with KAI for having trained some of their helicopter test pilots and flight test engineers in the past as well as many Republic of Korea Air Force test pilots and engineers since 2011. KAI was receptive to our proposals and we have worked well with them in developing some of our initiatives centered around the FA-50 version which is equipped with systems that align with our intended use of the aircraft.”

Cobham Mission Systems to Provide Air Refuelling Probe for KAI FA-50
Citat:Cobham Mission Systems, the world leader in air refuelling probe solutions, announced today it has been awarded a prime contract from Korea Aerospace Industries Ltd. (KAI) to deliver an air refuelling probe solution for its FA-50 advanced jet aircraft. Under this contract, Cobham Mission Systems will design, develop and qualify a telescopic probe solution, which the company anticipates will lead to future serial production requirements for KAI’s customer base.
Equipping the FA-50 with an air refuelling probe will enable air refuelling from hose and drogue tankers, enhancing the aircrafts operational flexibility and interoperability.
“Having supported KAI for over a decade, we are delighted to deliver this new operational capability for their impressive FA-50 jet,” said Russell Bailey, vice president air-to-air refuelling for Cobham Mission Systems in the UK.

Citat:“This success opens the path for Sniper’s integration onto FA-50 platforms around the world,” said Kenen Nelson, Fixed Wing program director at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control. “We’re proud to add the FA-50 to the long list of platforms the Sniper ATP can operate with and enhance. More than 27 domestic and international customers rely on the Sniper ATP, and it continues to be a key solution for its precision, affordability and reliability.”
The next steps are for KAI to obtain a Certification of Airworthiness (COA) to approve Sniper to fly and operate on FA-50 light fighter jets. Once certified, KAI can upgrade existing jets and build new jets in-line with this new capability in accordance with customer requirements.
Lockheed Martin and KAI are ready to begin working with countries that have FA-50 fleets and want to incorporate Sniper ATP once the Aircraft Certification Authority has approved to proceed.
