Description

The Shorts Tucano T MK.1, serves with the Royal Air Force as a basic two-seat turboprop trainer. Selected in the face of fierce competition to meet RAF requirement AST-412 for a Jet Provost replacement, the Tucano has a high performance combined with a considerable economy of operation. Developed from Brazilian Embrear EMB-312 Tucano ,wich is also in widespread service, the British version has a more powerful engine in a redesigned nose, a four-bladed propeller, vental air brake and restyled wing tips; less obivous are the structural strenghtening to give 50% longer fatique life, new cockpit layouts and strengthened cockpit canopy ; the crew are provided with Martin Baker Type 8LC ejection seats. Following a lengthy development programme ,the type entered service with the Cental Flying School at RAF Scampton in mid-1988, and as the 130 machines on order were delivered into service they replaced the Jet Provost with the Flying Training Schools, No.7 FTS being the first. The UK Ministry of Defence had an option for 15 more Tucano T.1`s and the Kenya Air force also ordered 15..
