\nIpad Doc<\/p>\nBackground L59 aircraft model<\/strong>
\nAero on early 1990 decided to come up with a Light attack and combat aircraft with more powerful
\nEngine that could carry more payload and also better flight handling quality . So they developed the L59
\naircraft and produced a total of 65 aircraft before then upgraded the program again and installing a more power engine they come up on late 1990\u2019s with the L159A and L159B aircraft model.<\/p>\nDifference between variants<\/strong>
\nL39C, L39MS\/L59 and L159A
\nEngine started at L39C using a AI25 model with 3,800 lbs of trust moving to the 4850 lbs engine
\nThen move into the L159 to 6,000 lbs of Thrust ( FJ124 ENGINE )
\nOn the L59 and L159A they installed dual hydraulic flight controls independent from each other
\nImproved the flight envelope on L59 and have much better attack and combat capability from the L39C
\nOn the L59 and L159A the max gross weight increase from 10,500 on the L39C up to 17,000 on the L159
\nOn the L59 AND L159A can be configured for 4 and up to 6 hard points for weapons and fuel tanks
\nThe L159 is still manufactured by Aero at a price of U$ 19m each unit .
\nThe canopy on the L159A and the L59 are the same design and very different then the L39C
\nAero develop also the L159B model and are current working on the L259 Next generation light attack<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
