I mean look at it. It's the most perfect jet trainer to ever be built. Not only that, it's a wonderful platform for a cheap, light attack aircraft.
Not only that, it's probably the most kawaii jet trainer to ever be built.
Czech land really hit a home run with it. Why doesn't the US buy a bunch for COIN? They work exceptionally well for other countries.
Hasn't been manufactured in 15 years. A trainer doesn't make for that good of a COIN aircraft either.

The picture here in the OP is an L-39
Yours is an L-59.
They are different. Neither has been produced in sometime even if they are both supported with parts.
>>28306061
The US has the T38 and its been used to train nearly every NATO air force.
>>28306161
It's basically the same airframe. The L-159 is built from the L-39.

the throttle response is pretty sweet since it's a turbojet.
Is this a trainer jets thread?
Dumping with one of the most beautiful trainer aircraft today

Doesn't make it good for COIN.
The US does us them as trainers though. That's what it's really good at.
