Russias copy is almost identical. Cool jet!

[@doc7440]

Different engine , radar, cockpit, avioncs, electronics , weapons , and materials too ( M346 use composite materials for chassis ) ... only the frame/ chassis shape is a "copy" ( because is a old yak-airmacchi joint project )

[@Ezekiel903]

don't know why they compare it always with the YAk, it's only the outside because it started as a joint venture, but it was clear even at the beginning, that they have to go different ways, the avionic was the first reason, it has to be compatible with western technology, same for electronics! the M346 is far superior, the avionic system, the electronic warfare is a big step ahead the YAK! and even Israel bought it, another sign that this aircraft is exceptional! today velocity means nothing, most people watch only max speed and the load capacity!

@pocaujmniewdupepocaujmniew5128 The Aermacchi M-346 Master is a family of military twin-engine transonic advanced jet trainers and light combat aircraft. Originally co-developed with Yakovlev as the Yak/AEM-130, the partnership was dissolved in 2000 and then Alenia Aermacchi proceeded to separately develop the M-346 Master, while Yakolev continued work on the Yakovlev Yak-130. BTW It is a derivative design from work such as the SIAI-Marchetti S-211A and it shows , if we really have to be honest it is the Russians who have "copied" from the work already done by Airmacchi.
