[About the Actual Machine]
It is the first supersonic aircraft to be developed in Japan based on the T-2, which was used as an advanced training aircraft for the Air Self-Defense Force.
It was the first aircraft to be developed by the Air Self-Defense Force to train elite pilots of the Air Self-Defense Force to protect the Japanese sky.
It was the first aircraft to be developed in Japan. It flew for the first time in 1971. It was put into operation in 1974 and was used until 2006.
From the latter half of the 1970 s, a CCV aircraft was developed based on the T-2 prototype No. 3 aircraft for research such as fly-by-wire technology.
The aircraft was successfully made for the first flight in 1983, and various tests were carried out by the Defense Agency for two years from 1984 to 1986. Valuable data on subsequent aircraft development was collected.
The aircraft is characterized by its different equipment from the T-2, such as horizontal / vertical canades and fairings to accommodate larger actuators.
