The C-101 was developed in the mid-1970s in Spain as an advanced flying and weapons trainer. Less than 100 C-101s were initially ordered by the Spanish air force so upgrades to the weapons system followed in the 1980s and 1990s to encourage export orders. The two-seat aircraft reached a maximum speed of 501 mph with provision for up to 4,410 pounds of armament. The C-101 featured one 30 mm DEFA cannon and ample internal space for training equipment.

Developed at the same time other trainers were designed with swept wings. The Spanish, using help from German and American design teams, came up with the C.101. It also uses a turbofan engine, proven and used in many commercial luxury and business jets. Another excellent replica provided by Aiken’s!
