| Design of the FMA IA 63 Pampa basic jet trainer began in 1979, and a definitive configuration was selected in 1980 with technical assistance from Dornier. Construction of three flying prototypes was initiated in March 1981 and the first flew on 6 October 1984.
Basically a cantilever shoulder-wing monoplane, the fuselage incorporates a tricycle landing gear, a single turbofan engine and a pressurised cockpit with tandem seats for the pupil and instructor on zero/zero ejection seats. The Argentine air force ordered 100 Pampas and the first three aircraft were delivered in April 1988. In 1990, FMA teamed with LTV to offer a version of the IA 63, designated Pampa 2000, to compete for the Joint Services Primary Aircraft Training System (JPATS) search for a common US trainer.

Matilau, e-mail, 12.05.2011 05:23 Where could I buy a model? My uncle, who used to be an Air Force Sub Official one time gave me a poster of the IA 63. Since watching a science fiction series that had well designed fighter planes (and one of them reminded me of the IA 63) I wanted to check it out online for more information. I would like to buy one or build one (I don't know too much about models, but I could start learning) and so I want more information about it. I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA. reply |
