Super Tucano. A training-led approach.
The EMB 314 is the aircraft proposed for the lead-in training role.
01
The proposed aircraft
The original document identifies the Super Tucano 314 as the proposed training aircraft, with a Gripen-like look and functionality. This describes the intended SWEMFTS configuration, rather than a confirmed modification or an existing SWEMFTS aircraft fleet.
02
The intended training role
The proposed Gripen-like functionality would support the transition to multi-role fighter operations. The detailed cockpit configuration and syllabus remain to be defined.
03
Explore the wider role
The concept also considers a secondary light multi-role fighter wing. The original proposal suggests volunteer personnel and pilot training staff as a possible staffing approach. Its role, configuration and organisation would be topics for further development.
