The Aermacchi MB-339 is an Italian attack and military trainer airplane manufactured by Aermacchi.

Summary

“	The MB-339 is a single-engine subsonic jet aircraft from Italian aerospace manufacturer Alenia Aermacchi. The two-seat jet has been used as both a trainer and an attack aircraft by the militaries of a number of countries throughout the world since its first flight in 1976. Additionally, it has served as the aircraft of choice for the aerobatic demonstration team of the Italian Air Force, the Frecce Tricolori ("tricolor arrows"). Engineers at Alenia Aermacchi based the design of the MB-339 off that of its predecessor, the MB-326, with a redesigned forward fuselage. The aircraft features a wing with a straight trailing edge, a gently swept leading edge, and tip tanks. The design, combined with a Rolls Royce turbojet engine, gives the MB-339 a top speed of 558 miles per hour, a ceiling of 48,000 feet, and a range of just under 1,100 miles — performance, endurance, and precision control. Climb into the cockpit of the Alenia Aermacchi MB-339 and prepare for exhilaration in the skies above. After swooshing off the ground, simply pull back on the stick with the throttle pushed all the way forward and start climbing at a rate of over 6,500 feet per minute — then roll out tens of thousands of feet aloft and soar elegantly above the clouds, or bank into an aggressive choreography of aerobatic maneuvers. Pilots at the helm of this subsonic attack craft quickly learn one thing: the Aermacchi MB-339 delivers a tremendous range of aviation acumen, a remarkable confluence of power, precision, and finesse.	”
