Jet Trainer

Saab, Boeing, and BAE Systems have signed a Letter of Intent to collaborate on the UK's next fast-jet trainer, proposing the T-7 Red Hawk as the core of a new training system for the Royal Air Force. The partnership aims to meet the UK Ministry of Defence's Advanced Jet Trainer requirement, with BAE Systems leading industrial activity as prime contractor.

The UAE aerobatic team Al Fursan has unveiled its new fleet of Hongdu L-15 jets at the Dubai Airshow 2025, marking a significant change after 15 years of flying the Aermacchi MB-339. The team's introduction of the L-15 is notable, given the aircraft's advanced features and the UAE's status as its highest-profile export customer to date.
